Brainerd, May 10 -- 1836, Dear Sir, Yours of Feb unclearth was duly received, though various hindrances have prevented my answering it till now. This letter, sir, gave me peculiar joy, as affording an opportunity of making some remarks concerning my former communications, and of giving you the assurance that whatever I can do to unclear youre enquiries relative to the Indians generally, and especially the Cherokees, I shall consider no burthen, but a part? of my delightful employment, which calls for no other reward than the hope of pleasing one, devoted to the cause of humanity and virtue.
