I am very busy to-day, but I must

give you a few lines to tell you how delighted your letters

made us. We are very happy here, but

home

is the place

after all, and it is one of our good Master's most constant

themes. He is always talking to us about home, and

encouraging us to talk of and think of it. Emilie seems

like a sister to us, and she enters into all our feelings as

well us you could do yourself.
