that I had discovered at the office. Yesterday afternoon I spent a little time in my room overhauling my effects to have them ship shape. I read again some of your letters of last January - particularly one. I hardly needed to read it; its phrases are graven on my heart, but it was good to see the words on the paper again. It goes with me always. I'm saving all your letters, of course. They will always be a book of books to me. In years to come what memories they will revive! If God is kind to us perhaps they may teach sometime to others whom we shall love what was the great love and devotion of their mother in the days when she was sacrificing the usual joys of the young bride for the support of a great and good cause.
