Dear Cousin
You wish to know my opinion of Mr Curtis &c no man is perfect, we all have our shortcomings, people living in a community stronly & powerfully operated upon by purty feelings and prejudice view these shortcomings very differently in those who sympathize with us, from those whose sympathy cross our path - Mr Curtis is a man of talent, a man of much energy of character, he is very much respected by his Church in Chicago, is conservative in his feelings and I have no doubt would make himself quite acceptable in Galesbury had it not been for party feeling which so lamentably prevails, those teachers who have not rendered themselves particularly obnoxious by their previous course I think need be under no apprehension that thro' the agency of Mr C they will be displaced on account of their being Congregationalists. I went to the depot to meet the cars last Saturday evening hoping to see you, love to you & your sister
Afftyly yours
D?. L Roberts
