My little one has not arrived yet, and I am still patiently waiting. These last weeks are so very trying, especially when I thought it would all be over - and that I would have by dear baby in my arms long ere this.

My Dear Mrs Stanford
I appreciated so very much the letter you wrote me, knowing as I do how very full your life is - and how many demands of important business you have on your time. I think it was so very sweet and kind of you - Dear Mrs Stanford - to write me the comforting hopeful words that you
did, especially when you are so full of grief and sorrow yourself. Of my many blesssings I count that of knowing you and being brought under the influence of your strong pure faith - one of the greatest. Although I have seen you but the two or three times, as I wrote you before - you will never realize the great good your written and spoken words have done me.

advantage of the interest you have shown in me - to ask this great favor of you - and if there is a chance of your misunderstanding my doing so - please do not think of it again - and forget that I have ever mentioned the subject - For I prize too highly your friendship to let anything mar its beauty - and if I do not hear from you, I will understand
that it was not convenient to comply with my request
Hoping that you are well - and with love to you
Faithfully yours Austie L Carr 2122 California St Jan 12th '94
