How many of you are living and together, I cannot tell.

My great grief is, lest you should have suffered this or some additional punishment on account of my _Exodus_.
I indulge the hope that it will afford you some consolation to know that your son and brother is yet alive.

That God has dealt wonderfully and kindly with me in all my way.

He has made me a Christian, and a Christian Minister, and thus I have drawn my support and comfort from that blessed Saviour, who came _to preach good tidings unto the meek, to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them, that are bound.

To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn.
