Precious Mother: -

How can I ever thank you for the wonderful year just past, It opens up to me daily more and more, and my love and appreciation to you for the priceless privilege of being with you is unbounded.

The astronomer looking into his little room feels fettered, but when he looks out, he finds himself moving about in fetterless space, and so I found more freedom at Pleasant View than I ever before dreamed of. I am here in ProvidenceEditorial Note: Providence, Rhode Island trying to put into practice what you in your unselfish love has taught me. I will be faithful As Written: faithfull and wherever wisdom may place me will strive to raise the standard as you have taught, better healing, to be more governed by God and less by our belief in an opposite, and to love our neighbor as ourselvesLev 19:18 ¶Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the Lord. Matt 22:36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Matt 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. Matt 22:38 This is the first and great commandment. Matt 22:39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Matt 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. .

I can never forget the dear one whose love and patience has made the whole world her debtor and to whom I owe my health happiness and way to heaven,- and to serve her is my first desire.

Your loving child
Gilbert.
