Accept many thanks from a grateful heart for your $200Editorial Note: 200.00 and a dear good letterEditorial Note: See 202A.33.038.. Oh how it carried me back nine years this very month since you entered my class in the College. And I thank God that He has held you, and the dear wife who afterwards came into the class,— in the paths of his testimony and the foot steps of the flock. What varied experiences we all have had since then! It would seem to me that I have lived 20 years instead of nine! The long rushing, troubled billows that have flowed over my frail bark have many times threatened to strand it upon another shore. But God was at the helm steering me safely, if roughly, over the dark waters. My dear student, how I have rejoiced that the same Captain of our salvationHeb 2:10 For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings. has brought you with me in the LifeboatAs Written:Life boat of Christian Science. And how I do rejoice in the strength of faith and understanding, to know that this dear God will land us both safely in the port of heaven. May His loving care give you and your wife hourly evidence of His presence and Allness.

With ever abiding love, your old Teacher, Pastor and friend
