He is glad to see that McMaster's writings are more daring and fearless and they make him resolve to place his principles above life itself. He is in good health, a perfect soldier for Old Abe. His brother Chip White came to work with him at Milford, so he asks that McMaster change their address to here. He cannot say whether their little club will continue through the year. He has McMaster's receipt now and will send it to A _____ Fitzgerald today, asking him to do all he can to renew it. It expires Sept.13, and McMaster's traveling agent should call on Fitzgerald when he is in Auburn. He knows McMaster suffered pecuniary leases by Lincoln's infernal edict. It is an onslaught on the Irishmen and Democrats to pay $300 for blood. It is useless to pay greenbacks to the government, who can make millions out of a wagon load of rags. He will neither go nor pay the $300 if possible. He would like to go into some seminary or college for a few years and obtain an education. Others have done this on the same or less capital that he is able to spend. He asks McMaster's advice and assistance in this matter. He could go to Canada and be safe, but will not have enough money after exchanging it for Canadian money. He knows McMaster will assist him and hopes to be able to repay him in some way before hedges. ` P.S. He may direct his reply to Michael White, Milford, New York. :: I-1-m A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
