Description

Rev. John Summerfield (currently appointed by the Baltimore Conference to promote the missionary cause, form auxiliary societies, hold anniversary meetings, raise money around the conference) received Finley's request for a $50 contribution to the Wyandot Mission. He has been able to raise the money and will issue a draft in the name of Samuel Harden, Methodist merchant in Baltimore, that Finley can draw upon from any store keeper in the western country. He would like to send something to his "son", John Summerfield [Wyandot boy named after Rev. Summerfield at request of the Juvenile Missionary Society of Baltimore], perhaps a new suit of clothes. He asks Finley for advice on the matter. Abstract Number - 714
