would write to thee, on the great big sky, for I would say

so much could it only go to the in the air
 +
so you had such a beautiful time, just the right gathering

to those two dear cousins of mine some how or other I always

drive on that track when I get where they are, they must

take their time to look into this great truth, for all of me,

but I am glad they were there that evening but they didn't

say a word, and they never will, don't let us burden them

with the subject I am glad Mary and William were

there, I know they deeply thought I know they felt, this world

Frederick. his [illegible] but exalted brother if he come to each

at all, but I congratulate thee glorious Lincon that thy

work is done – and that thou hast entered faithful servant into

the joy of thy Lord – still we would ask thee, to look down upon us;

walk with the labourers in the field,  and as justice must be

beautiful that Frederick should be made [semble?] of ^the^ [?presence?]

I <u>shall</u>  in the right time; I believe there is a ^right^ time for all things

and that time <u>will come </u> ^yet^ my Soul <u>so longs for his full and

I feel as if it was onward, on its March now

that the mist and fogs are underfoot, – let us all help
