From Harry's mother Evelena, October 16, 1866 page 4

I am thankful for every new
evidence of your happiness, which
I trust will increase to a deep
and abiding feeling, -- as the novelty
and excitement pass away. --

I am very happy in the knowledge
that you are so, and earnestly desire
that health and prosperity, will
be among your daily blessings.

I do not think of any new of
interest to you. -- The first of
November we are to settle Mr. Merry
as our pastor. -- I am glad to know
that you have good preachers, and
hope Mr. Wright (is that the name?),
will be your pastor and friend. --

All friends send love and congratu-
lations. I am looking currently
for letters from you, and keep Lue
posted as to the right time for
the steamers, knowing Nellie's
anxiety to hear from home. --

Your affectionate Mother

E A Mighels. --

Nellie's letter has just arrived --
