(SPRINGFIELD ARMORY). ALS. 1pg. November 26, 1818. U.S. Armory, Springfield, Massachusetts. An autograph letter signed Roswell Lee by the Commanding Officer of the U.S. Armory in Springfield, Massachusetts.

I have thought it my duty Sir to apply to you as the temporal head of the church in this Diocese, to aid us in procuring a suitable Man to perform the duties of clergyman at this place, your own Judgment will dictate what manner of man he ought to be, when you are informed that a portion of his hearers will be composed of characters as Respectable as any in the State. It is not necessary to say that he must be a man of piety, prudence, education, Abilities, and of unblemished Reputation. If you can aid us in obtaining such a man I believe we can safely promise you a reputable addition to your Diocese and afford him a Salary equal to of 1.000 dollar per annum.

The letter is in good condition, with a hold in the address leaf and minor wear otherwise.…
