Elizabeth Dorsey was treasurer of the Germantown Freedmen's Aid Association, an important source of funding for Martha Schofield's school in Aiken. Discusses Schofield's former student Lawrence Obanyon Posey, who was studying at Lincoln University with Dorsey's support. Implies that Posey is having difficulties; says Schofield is the best person to write to him. Says that she asked a Quaker friend for money for Allen A. Scott, another of Schofield's students now at Lincoln, and was refused because Lincoln sometimes educated students for the ministry and this friend was opposed to paid ministers.
