Pottstown, August 26, 1867. One page quarto, folded for mailing. Approx. 200 words. Docketed on verso; with integral stampless cover addressed in manuscript to "Mr. Able Rambo, Trappe, Montgomery Co., Pa" bearing a red circular "Pottstown AUG 27" date stamp, postage rate and paid stamps. A community letter seeking to recruit Abel Rambo (18211887), a respected educator, to instruct Pottstown's youth. In part: "Sir, I embrace this opportunity of informing you that we are very much in want of a teacher in this place to teach the science of vocal music, and there is a disposition manifested to learn to sing among the young folks of this place, and vicinity, and the larger portion of them appear to center upon you as being a very suitable teacher." The correspondent, M.S. or M. Saylor, references a discussion with one Abraham Miller and expresses optimism that "we could get a reasonable number of scollars [sic]," noting both material and interest in vocal instruction. Rambo was a well-known educator in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. He took charge of Washington Hall Collegiate Institute in Trappe, and conducted it for many years.
