Nathan! I shall not be here long to trouble any of you - my time here is short, but I trust you nor your older brothers will not forget your Mother (whose health is very poor this spring) nor your little Brothers - I have seen enough of the joys & sorrows, the blessings & afflictions for this world to wean me from it - but I look forward to the joyous morn of the Resurrection when this mortal shall have put on Immortality and this corruption shall have put on Incorruption and Death swallowed up in victory - when God shall wipe away all tears from our eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow nor crying; neither shall there be any more pain; for the former things are passed away - the children are well - Remember us to Erasmus & his family and receive this from your Father Paul R. Kendall

P.S. Edwin & Raymond are at home also Sarah Jane
