We went over to a quarterly meeting held in the new church at

Miltons. Glockners folks. Mrs. Monkern, Will & Mary,

Mother, Manda Check & I. We had a good time. Saw Lizzie

Hurt. Had not seen her since Feb. last. "My little girl" looked

so very nice I am more in love with her every day, but I fear

that it is not the same with her.

Mrs. Shull died at 10 o'clock today. The boys found her dead

or almost so when they came home from work the night

before and she never revived. It was so sudden, they all feel

awful over it and they were all baptized and promised at their

Mother's coffin to lead a different life. How uncertain life is!

One year ago today I started for Farm Island Lake. I did not

think then that I would be back here again within a year.

Neither would I if it had not been for the Mother and the "little

girl".

Sister Mary started for Barnesville to live. Will get a job there.

So the last of our sisters has gone for herself. No one but us

boys with Mother now. I hope they will get along all right and

be happy.
