Abstract
James Lyman Merrick letter to Justin Perkins in which Merrick responds to Perkins' inquiry about "a box of newspaper etc. from America" noting the article had not yet arrived but a caravan was expected soon. Merrick relays news of the political conflict between France and the United States and the likelihood of war. He comments on the Persian King's desire for a European school at Teheran (Tehran) and endorses Perkins' opinion that this was the time for evangelical action in Persia. Merrick says he is glad that Perkins has a good home and is no longer subject to the cares and troubles of a pilgrim. Merrick also conveys greetings from Mr. Twig and from Mr. Buchner, who hopes Perkins is blessed with many children.
