Description
Bowman's letter, enclosing one from Van Buren, has reached him as well as the memorial to the legislature; his mind is open on the question though at first opposed on the grounds urged by Trinity Church, the desecration of the dead and the gross frauds that always attend the carrying out of such plans; will confer with Governor Morgan, Mr. Conkling and Mr. Jeremiah and inform Bowman of their views; is glad to have made his acquaintance on paper and will be pleased to serve him.
