Dear Sisters,
I was very pleased to see you & Ada, I thank
you all for coming as I could not come to see you.
I know Ada was downhearted when she had to leave
me. I could see you did not like it & I felt the same.
I only hope its my luck to come out alright. Tell Ada
& those at home to cheer up & hope for the best & trust
to God that I may be one of them to come through
alright. I will try to come home as soon as I can
& I will try to see Sarah some weekend. Thank mother
& father for what they sent & I thank Asa & you for
your kindness to me. Remeber me to Will & Lisie & tell
them I am going on alright so far & look after Ada
for me. I dont think I can write any more so I will
close with Best of Love to all good night & God
Bless you.
I reamin
Your loving
Brother
