In this draft letter, Samuel Adair thanks the Ladies Circle of South Hadley Falls, Massachusetts, for sending a fount, plate, and cups for use in the church in Osawatomie, Kansas Territory. His appreciation is expressed in a religious sense in that he asks for their prayers and says that the Ladies Circle had those of the church. He reports on sickness and on difficulties related to the church and comments on "irreligion" in the area.
