as conservative clergy & Diocese
depend somewhat on this union. We
are too much in bondage to this
& Cincinnati - and are now suffering
from the Bishop introducing the
ex-editor of the West. Epis. (defunct)
into our Diocese, who, with some others,
are agitating among them selves &
[Redef. Miss. Scre.?] operations &c?
- but we are quiet and will act &
vote at the right time & in the right
way. Our sympathies are really with
the South & not with the radicalism
of Ohio. -

Would it not be well to organize
as soon as possible, if consistent with
your plans, Grammar schools for boys
at Sewanee, so that ripe scholars
trained under your own auspices, may
be ready for your University classes.

Yours Very Truly,
R. [M'Musdy?].
