 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-1-o

Scope and Contents

He encloses a clipping from the Missouri Republican which deserves notice by McMaster. He also saw a New York telegram about ten days ago which announced the deportation of 123 children westward by a certain association. McMaster can check on the telegram by referring to the dispatches of the Associated Press. The enclosed clipping is a reprint of a letter from the United States Emigration and Banking Agency, London, England, dated Aug. 11, 1871, to Mr. W. L. C. Brey, Secretary, Mullanphy Emigrant Relief Fund, St. Louis. The letter confirms the request for English domestic servants, and states that it is necessary to advance part of their passage money in order to insure good English girls. Twenty could be sent every fortnight if $25 was advanced for each, this amount to be deducted from their wages. :: I-1-o A.L.S.and newspaper clipping 1p. 12mo.
