He also was to send it to Tougaloo or for the benefit of that University. but has not done so for wh. I am very sorry, it very likely sliped [sic] his mind
Mr Horton desires me to write to Mr. Hubbard & have the sum we sent there appropriated for your school if. possible. And if this can not be done we will take another offering making it as large as the lost ($9.) & send it on to your treasurer. Your University must not be the looser [sic] by our blunders.
