Seneca Mission Feb. 8. To J. Parrish Esqr Dear Sir, This is to inform you that the roll of Blankets &c which were forwarded to the Station for the benefit of the Indian School, has safely come to hand. As you did not particularly mention the mode in which they were forwarded I did not know where or of whom to inquire respecting them. They lay in Mr. Rathbun's baggage-room some weeks I believe before I heard from them. You will please accept this apology, for my not acknowledging...

Buffalo. July 6, 1829 To Capt. J. Parrish, Canandaigua - Dear Sir: I have but just heard from the Indians that you are expected to attend council with them in the course of a few days - I have barely time to remark, that the Indians requested me some little time since, to inform you that the meeting-house frame has been reared and that it is to be completely finished in the course of a month.

Parrish, Canandaigua - Dear Sir: I have but just heard from the Indians that you are expected to attend council with them in the course of a few days - I have barely time to remark, that the Indians requested me some little time since, to inform you that the meeting-house frame has been reared and that it is to be completely finished in the course of a month. For various reasons I have deferred making the statement they requested, one of which was, that I had hoped soon to be in Canandaigua, and to deliver the message in person. At the completion of the House they are obliged by the contract to pay the builder in cash (or rather between this and that time) 600 dollars. If it shall be in your power Sir, in any wise to assist us in making this payment; we shall consider ourselves greatly obliged - I desire that the payments may be punctual, but you know what Indians are. I have besides this been obliged, in order to have the building properly finished, to become personally responsible for about 90 Dollars - I shall hope to see you after your arrival, Sir, Respectfully Yours T.
