Mary to Abby Warwick Oct, I dont know what, 1860 Monday Evening Dear Sister Abby: I suppose of course you are in your own home this evening, and no doubt your're glad to be home again. Yet of course you will be feeling anxious to hear from mother, so I thought. She was very distressed all the afternoon after you left and unable to sit up. The next morning she got up but was in such pain she was faint and was obliged to lay down again, and she had a very bad week all last week. So much so that she thought she could not live but a short time, and wanted me to look over her wardrobe and select clothing for her burial, and have it in readiness - which I did, painful as the task was - And she spoke much about dying, and of the future life beyond the grave, of meeting father Libiah, and her sister Abby and your little written down left hand side of page you may consider mother is no worse until you hear again -
