- Abstract
- F-2 1832, March 10 Letter to E. R. in Andover MA from Othniel Williams in Clinton. Enclosed with the letter is an accounting of how the money is to be paid for the land, and includes the bonds and mortgage guarantees. Also included is a clarification of how a woman's share of the deeded parcel (i.e., Therese's joint ownership) is to be handled in the court. Letter contains an interesting postscript: "Dr. Davis informs me he shall retire from the Presidency of Ham. College in the course of the ensuing season. I am one of a committee of five on whom devolves the duty of recommending to the Board of Trustees a successor. Can you name a suitable person who is probably within our reach? This of course is said, at least to some extent, sub rosa."
