Sarah F. Corlies letter to Martha Schofield

Sarah Corlies was a friend of Martha Schofield and the secretary of the Germantown Freedmen's Aid Association, which was an important source of funding for the Schofield School in Aiken. Describes her holiday activities and the distribution of Christmas gifts to the Sewing School students (probably referring to the Penn Sewing School). Discusses the continued sponsorship of Schofield's former students Lawrence Obanyon Posey and Allen A. Scott to attend Lincoln University. Informs Schofield of Mr. Webb's death. Is glad of Schofield's success in moving her schoolhouse to a different location in Aiken and wonders if Dillwyn Parrish or Mary Brown would provide charitable donations.
