I
came on here direct with J. W. Loguen the day after you left Rochester.
I am succeeding, to all appearance, beyond my expectations. Harriet
Tubman hooked on his whole team at once. He (Harriet) is the most
of a man, naturally, that I ever met with. There is the most abundant
material, and of the right quality, in this quarter, beyond all
doubt. Do not forget to write Mr. Case (near Rochester) at once
about hunting up every person and family of the reliable kind
about, at, or near Bedford, Chambersburg, Gettysburg, and Carlisle,
in Pennsylvania, and also Hagerstown and vicinity, Maryland, and
Harper's Ferry, Va. The names and residences of all, I want to
have sent me at Lindenville.
