Koehler's Index: 720. 1863, August 16, sent from Berlin, Germany, by Eichler to Bading. 10 Kandidaten will Moldehnke haben. Hoffmanns Frau etc sollen sich gedulden. Sollen sich etwas verdienen, dass sie übers Jahr reisen können. Fachtman hat mit der Anstellung Wolffs eine Dummheit gemacht, die Eichler sich nächstens verbitten wird. Muehlhaeuser freut sich über Giese, weil der keine lutherischen Hörner hat. Hat Bading solche? Will Adresse des Pennsylania Präses haben, damit die $100.00 zum Reisepredigergehalt in Minnesota beisteuern. Fürs Seminar vielleicht ein zweiter Lehrer aus Tübingen. Mal bei Hoffmann und Dorner anfragen.

(Moldehnke wants candidates. Hoffmann's wife etc should be patient. Should earn something so that they can travel throughout the year. Fachtman made a stupid mistake in hiring Wolff, which Eichler will soon forgive. Muehlhaeuser is happy about Giese because he doesn't have Lutheran horns. Does Bading have any? Wants address of Pennsylvania presidency so they can contribute $100.00 to Minnesota traveling ministry salary. Maybe a second teacher from Tübingen for the seminar. Ask Hoffmann and Dorner.)
