coming on better than we expected our teachers if very kind to
us but especially Mr Ed williams and Mr. D. Jones we are going there every
sunday night to sing but we shall never see one like
you my sister gives her best respect to you and hope that
the Almighty will give you power to go home safe and shall
see your dear mother and your dear brothers and sisters
well and she is very sorry that she had not the pleasure
of bid you the last fare well the sunday school are all join
in love to you i was often thinking of that chapter that
you have red to us last that it was very becoming
to you and to us i hope that the lord will give us power
to folow the good examples that you gave before
us i hope that you will remember me before the one [indecipherable]
of grace that he will pardone me of all my
sins i shold like to pray to god for his grace to
make you a faithfull Minister of jesus christ to preach the

379
gospel to the poor negros i hope that you wont be
[indecipherable] of the small trifle that i am sending you
Snuff Box with your initials
pray sir do not be offended at the freedom and maner
of my wrighting. this is the first letter that i
ever wrote so no more at this time from your
humble servant Jane Davies

My dear teachers often tell me that i have a soul
That i have a soul to save
shall i suffer sloth and anger
When i am hasten to the grave
Our dearest friends when death shall call
At once must hence depart
But there we hope to meet them all
And never ever part
