In memory of God's goodness to my deceased sister and
to myself, while we were within the walls of the Home for the Sick,
and in gratitude for the faithful care to our bodies and our souls,
by pastor, chaplain, and nurses, I send you the enclosed check,
which I think you once told me was the sum necessary to found
a permanent bed in your blessed institution. That your labors may be
as useful in the future as they have been in the past is the sincere
prayer of a fellow-laborer in Christ's vineyard.
