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 [sic] & powerfully operated upon by party 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 talents, 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 underlined: particularly obnoxious by their previous course I underlined: 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
