To Olive Cockerell.
I like to picture what a meeting it may be of those two in the great beyond, where we dare to hope for so much, and to look to meet those we love; we, as they, purified and grown, and strengthened. Such thoughts, dear, and not of the grave and death, be yours and Una’s, tho’ one knows how deep the pain is, and must be.

Do you not believe your Father and Mother see and know? I do, only we can’t hear them speak.

To Mrs. Hanson.
... You have so much good work of your own on hand that we must be careful not to plan anything which would be a burden, or overtax your strength. To work with full power, to work where one is well known, and where one’s character tells, is important.
