Letter, 1835 Apr. 29.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/39670259

Letter, April 29, 1835, from G.B. Whiting, Jerusalem, to Rev. Isaac Bird, Beyroot (sic), in English.

There is no indication of denomination, although a "committee" is mentioned which seems to control the assignment of clergy or missionaries to various locations in the Middle East.
