Letter to the Board of Gentlemen from Mrs. Mary A. Hollingsworth, writing on behalf of Mrs. John J. Oserton [Osertin?] of Finchville (previously Bloomfield). Mrs. Oserton adopted a ten year old girl, Mary Ellen Slaughter, at the home who has proven "untrustworthy" and unreliable. Mrs. Oserton and her husband wish to return Mary Ellen for a younger child.
