Mr Kimbal
Sir
Since I forwarded my second letter to you my sister Miss T Lyons has returned home from New York, where she has been detained sometime by illness, and I learn from her the true conditions of the schools and teachers in Maryland, I therefore with draw my application, as I think the course pursued by the Baltimore association is neither just to the freedmen, nor to those who instruct them.
Respectfully
