It is the only intelligence we have had from you since Mr.Brown left you.

I began to think that something was the matter with respect to your health that occasioned your long silence....

We are very desirous, my son, that you should excel in everything that will make you truly happy and useful to your fellow men.

In particular by no means neglect your duty to your Heavenly Father.

Remember, what has been said with great truth, that he can never be faithful to others who is not so to his God and his conscience.
