Koehler's Index: 719. 1863, August 10, sent from Watertown by Hoenecke to Reim. Reim soll in Watertown predigen. Böhmer hat Methodisten schnöde angegriffen, wo wir doch unter den Leuten kollektieren wollen. Moldehnke will den Seminar in der Zeitungen anmelden. Aber das unsternartige [?] Wesen taught bei den Amerikanern nicht. Das muss der Anfang an Gebäuden und Lehrerpersonal etc etwas vorstellen. Kusel und Bertram stehen gerade so wie ich. Was meinen Sie?

(Reim is to preach in Watertown. Böhmer rudely attacked Methodists when we want to collect from among the people. Moldehnke wants to announce the seminar in the newspapers. But the non-starlike [?] nature does not teach with the Americans. The beginning of buildings and teaching staff etc must introduce something. Kusel and Bertram are standing just like me. What do you mean?)
