User-Contributed Transcription good prayer meetings. I wish I could be with you this afternoon. O, to feel, as Rev. Thos. Jones said, that Jesus is here, just at hand, and to confide in him as he deserves.He will all our sorrows heal; if not in this world, at least in another he has promised that all our tears shall be wiped away. "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning." "They shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away."I hope father and mother are both well, and feeling well. God is good, it seems as though we all must be happy in trusting him. Give my love to Libbie Owens. Does she go to prayermeeting with you? I suppose you may have to break it up when the weather becomes very cold, unless we have a very open winter, and you conclude to meet in the houses.Miss Edwards called here yesterday afternoon and went with us to meeting in the evening. She says that some pleasant day she is going to give Anna another ride. That-there horse has been away for a long time, or she would have been here before. Write before long please - CynthiaWe both send love A and C.Thank Father for the stamps he sent some time ago. We are using the second of them now. Please have Tommy return the book I borrowed of Mr. Mitchell The Central Idea of Christianity - I left it on the table in the parlor. I meant to have done it up to send to him at the lodge. You may send my apologies also for keeping it so long that is if you can invent any for me.
