Finley\u27s grandson James tells first of an epidemic of fever which affected his whole family and caused the deaths of many others. He then relates plans to build a Methodist church in his vicinity. He would like to donate the shingles but cannot do it alone, so asks Finley to help him by soliciting 15or20 in his territory. The church is very necessary, he says, due to the ignorance and vice prevalent in the town. Abstract Number - 406https://digitalcommons.owu.edu/finley-letters/1604/thumbnail.jp
