G-1 [1827?] Letter of introduction for The Rev. Mr. Yates, a professor at Union College, written by Alonzo Potter of Union College in Schenectady NY, and addressed to E. R. in Germany. No date on letter, but since Mr. Yates became a good friend of E. R., so much so that he was the only person from the USA present at E. R.'s wedding to Therese, it can be assumed this letter originated sometime between the end of 1826 and the beginning of 1828.
