When I shall be greatly rejoiced I doubt not May God in his great mercy bless you and preserve you all and me, Heres one the best kisses I can send you.

I took yours and dear Maudie&'s pictures and the blessed little Bible you gave me. I read a chapter and then I devoutly knelt where none but the eye of God
