Mother and Mr. White took care of him last night and he was very much distressed all night - on account of breathing. Mr. White said we must have two watchers to night. He is very weak and can't live but a very few days at most. We have had a man with us from some of the neighbors most of the time this week I know brother that it is hear for you to leave school but Father desires it. Says he can't hinder you but a short time. Tell Raymond we shall send him word when Father is not more and if possible he must come down as Erasmus & Edwin will not be here. I hope he will come at that time. I do not feel like writing more neither have I time if I did for I have enough to employ me which you know is always the case. Hope you will be able to read this.

  from your loving Sister Sarah J. Kendall
