What do you think about Sister Anne's prospects? And what had she better do? It seems Mr Harlow wants that land on which her School House is situated. Is there any good place to more it to, and would it be worth the while? Would it sell as it is? What can she do? I guess she thinks some of going west. Had she better? I do not think much f this going off away from friends and all who can assist or who feel an interest in one? There must be many trials attending it. I am afraid you hardly do Anne justice. She has some defects it is true, but very many excellencies, and we all on her word smudged side? much. Not debts of mere folly dollars & cents, but what is more valuable, and sorely obtained, love, care & interest. I expect you are most too hard upon her sometimes. that you hurt her feelings unnecessarily and without doing any Good. Write.
"The Authority of Government is derived. Neither is it derived simply from the people. If all inhabitants of the land were to assemble enmasse at the Capital, we would no more concede to them absolute power than to their Representative. In the best and most legitimate form, the power cannot come from the People. It can, at most, only come through the people. It comes from Him, who is possed of "All power in heaven and on Earth'. A greater than all Governments, people or Princes, says "By Me Kings reign, and princes decree justice" "There is no power but God."
