My situation is very much as it has been—I think not very encouraging. I am in the hands of God and in a measure reconciled to His will; and it is impossible to determine what will be the issue of the disease. I hope I can say, “The Lord reigns; blessed be His name.” But you see what poor work I make of writing—should be glad to see you all before I die—I commit all to God. Oh! Remember your Creator! Let not the fashions of the world divert your minds from eternity!
Your dying father,
