My Friend Fairfax will write you at my request and give you the particulars of my death.
My grave will be marked so that you may visit it if you desire to do so, but it is optionary with you whether you let my remains rest here or in Mississippi.

I would like to rest in the graveyard with my dear mother and brothers, but it is a matter of minor importance.

Let us all try to reunite in heaven.

I pray my God to forgive my sins & I feel that his promises are true, that he will forgive me and save me.

Give my love to all my friends.
