If you could I should be very happy to have you visit Brainerd with some of your scholars. When you came to my Father's I did not know you. Catharine said that she was not homesick all the time she stand with you at Brainerd. There are eight unclear girls in school. Few of them talk english four cannot. I suppose you remember Brother William. He hopes that God has forgiven his sins. He sat up night after night, and hopes the Lord heard his prayers. When you write to Miss.
