Dear Mother these few lines from Cousin Sampson, I received about 10 minutes ago. I was as much surprised as you will probably be when this reaches you. As I wrote to sister Sarah but a couple of days ago. I did not intend writing at present but thought I would just send the note which I carried from him. Before writing again I will endeavor to find him and will probably succeed. I will write again about next Sabbath or Monday as I shall probably have an opportunity of seeing him before then. Your friends in the battery are all well.
