FIRST LETTER._The Underground Railroad A Record of Facts, Authentic Narratives, Letters, &c., Narrating the Hardships, Hair-Breadth Escapes and Death Struggles of the Slaves in Their Efforts for Freedom, As Related by Themselves and Others, or Witnessed by the Author.

HAMILTON, March 25th, 1856.

Mr. Still:--Sir and Friend--I take the liberty of addressing you

with these few lines hoping that you will attend to what I shall

request of you.

I have written to Virginia and have not received an answer yet.

I want to know if you can get any one of your city to go to

Richmond for me. If you can, I will pay the expense of the

whole. The person that I want the messenger to see is a white

girl. I expect you know who I allude to, it is the girl that

sent me away. If you can get any one to go, you will please

write right away and tell me the cost, &c. I will forward the

money and a letter. Please use your endeavors.

Yours Respectfuliy,
