of another. Tomorrow is Easter Sunday & it always gives me an idea of white lillies & peace all over - & my better self must write then & finish this little book. Sunday Apr. 1st I must write the last words in my little journal now & then put it away among my treasures; it is a treasure to me, for its careless scribbling brings back to me dear pictures of many happy days; happier ones, perhaps, than I shall have in the years to come, but I do not know of that, I only hope & trust Him who has made it so bright in the 14 years that are past & and when I write the last words of my second journal if I ever do, I hope they may end a record of purer thoughts
