A letter from David Monfort to John Finley Crowe in 1846 about Montfort's experience at a meeting of the Synod at Lafayette. He summarizes the discussion on the Presbyteries efforts to reinvigorate Hanover College after the brief establishment of Madison University. Later on, Monfort counsels patience to Crowe and states that a college's reputation would be enough to bring prosperity to a town.
