Albany New York; 16 February 1838. 3pp. folio. Bifolium. Fair on aged paper with slight wear to edges. Southwick apologises for not repaying a loan from Corning giving as a reason the lack of success of his book 'A Layman's Apology': 'I have not to this day except paying the Printers out of the subscription received one hundred dollars.' His lecture receipts from 'the Western district' have also been disappointing 'for I met with so much opposition in some quarters that it nullified as it were my success in others; so that all I accomplished was to keep my head above water excepting that amid much embarrassment and many privations I have at last brought to perfection or rather completion an entire system of Self Education of the utmost importance to the rising generation'. He has been told by 'Messrs. Carey and Lee of Philadelphia that so soon as there shall be a favourable change in our monied concerns they will purchase the Copy Right of my Lectures on Self Education - The Harpers promise the same as to my Course of Bible Lectures'. In a postscript Southwick boasts of 'more string to my bow - my son succeeds in establishing my Family Newspaper - for on his means and industry as a Printer it entirely relies for its publication . You may judge of his merit when I assure you that he saved out of his hard-earnings as a Journeyman Printer three years enough to enable him to purchase & pay for half the Printing-Office of Messrs. Skinner & Co:'. Albany [New York]; 16 February 1838. unknown
