My Dear Sister:
I saw Mr. Campbell and the chair that Lottie was looking at is still in the shop. (Price $12.00) I asked him to hold it for you until he heard from you and he agreed to do so. it is a very fine chair and would be very suitable for you.
I had a very warm drive home on Sunday, reaching here as the bell was ringing for six o’clock. I look back with joy to my privilege of speaking for my Lord to the people of your district. I go to Mr. Talmay’s today. You will be pleased to know that Ethel McCurdy acknowledged Christ last night in our prayer meeting. Mrs. Marshall and children are well. I enclose a letter of introduction to Mr. Mellick for Lottie I hope she hears today regarding a boarding house.
I do pray my sister that God may continue to make your life bright with His own presence and that through the gloom may be seen His face.
God is love, his mercy brightens All the path in which we rove.
Bliss he wakes and woe he lightens
God is wisdom, God is love.
E’en the hour that darkest seemeth
Will his changeless goodness prove.
From the gloom his brightness streameth
God is wisdom, God is love.
May these beautiful words find a response in your soul. Mrs. M. joins me in love to you.
Regards to all.
Yours very sincerely,
T. M. Marshall
