| Abstract | Eliz. Wheelwright letter to Justin Perkins in which Wheelwright notes letters from Perkins and other missionaries. She says that this letter is going along with a box and writes further about boxes they have sent and plan to send and books for packages. Miss and Mrs. Banister are mentioned several times. Wheelwright responds to what Perkins said about the two girls who came from a great distance to the Seminary, mentions Miss Rankin, and notes that her brother is going on with the Rail Road though the war with Paraguay has caused difficulty. After the letter are three loose pages that pertain to the contents of a box, presumably the one that also contained this letter. |
