The following short letter looks as if it may have been handed to a presiding elder in the conference or during the cabinet sessions. [PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA]
[April —, 1807]1
[TO WHOM?]
My Brother:2
Unless something very great indeed [happens], I am fixed to retain Thomas3 in the Baltimore Conference. I also think Brother Sharp will be continued in Philadelphia. They made choice of him themselves. If you and brother Sharp could think of a man, a second, I would think also. F. Ay.
