trust, is alive now, as fresh and vigorous, let me hope,
as the kind of a century ago. Both need of course to
be disengaged from their temporary limitations and to
recognize more distinctly the Supreme Spirit, the [ Real?]
Presence of God with us; but the aspiration to [ ?]
the Highest, even when the insight is dim, [ ?] the en-
deavor to bring human society into harmony with the
Eternal Righteousness, must be perpetual. I
will not trouble you, however, at greater length with [ ?] man's
[ ?tions.
Allow me to ask of you a personal favor. As
many as two or three years ago I received a very
kind letter from your neighbor, Mr. Beach. I was
ill when it came, and for such after was unable
either to read or write. When I recovered, I fully
intended to answer it. But unhappily during my
sickness it disappeared. I delayed writing in hope
of finding it. It has not come back to me yet, much
to my regret. Please do me the favor to report
this story to the brother who remembered me so
kindly, and assure him that, if I have ap-
peared to neglect him, I certainly have not forgotten
him, and shall not forget.
Truly your friend and brother,
Thomas T. Stone
