Dear Bro:-

Your favor of 11th inst. received. In relation to the amount of money remitted to bro. Staines to your credit and the amot. of our drafts upon you from 1st Jany 1872 to June 22 1872 you are not far wrong, but when we reckon up to this date, including your drafts on us paid same period, and some of our own drafts on you paid here, plus all sent to Bro Staines, makes now over $43.000.00 which is about sufficient to meet the List ordered from here, and your selections to the amount of about $6000. as directed by the President, also the drafts or nearly so. I have done everything possible during the last 6 weeks in your favor. Your ideas are I think perfectly true about ordering persons from here on the representations of interested persons, and that all donated persons funds should be applied there, in England & those places where the old good members are, and I have of late done my best to aid that view of the case, with some good results, I trust. You will not need now to draw on the President I reckon, that is if we keep up our remittances.#

Yours in the Covenant of Peace
T.W. Ellerbeck
