User-Contributed Transcription The Extremes of society are apt to get too fare from each other, especially those who stand on elevated positions often seem to overlook those whose position is more humble.The bond of "Christian fellowship" does not prove to be strong enough to insure the exercise of Christian sympathy. it is sad that this is so. but it is too true to be kept out of sight, and it needs the appliances of Machinery to keep alive the spark of Love which may change to exist in our hearts.Good By, Love to your Father and Mother S.W. Furber
