Letter Written To Charlotte On The Death Of His Father
April 14, 1854
"I reached here about two o'clock this afternoon. Our dear father closed his earthly existence at four o'clock this morning. His end was peace. He was a very affectionate father. His love for his children was more than common. I feel thankful I had the means and the disposition to supply his temporal wants in his old age. He will be buried by the side of our dear mother. They will sleep in Jesus until the resurrection morning. I hope to see them again, and to share with them eternal life."
