Koehler's Index: 643. 1862, November 3, sent from Racine by the church council to Bading. Wollen Köhler (2 Berufe abgelehnt) oder Gausewitz. Der hat auch abgelehnt. Conrad hat den Brief aber nicht abgegeben, sondern zuerst seine Abschiedspredigt gehalten. Das war nicht recht. Jetzt muss Gausewitz kommen.

(Want Köhler (2 professions rejected) or Gausewitz. He also refused. However, Conrad did not hand in the letter, but first gave his farewell sermon. That wasn't right. Now Gausewitz must come.)
