Thomas-Prescott Letters : October 4, 1866

J. [Edmund?] is writing to the younger B. H. Thomas, beseeching him to attend school in Hamilton, NY, (possibly at Madison University, a Baptist seminary school formerly known as the Hamilton Literary & Theological Institution and later known as Colgate University). He lets Thomas know that he will receive monetary compensation to cover certain expenses should he decide to make the trek to Hamilton to attend classes.
