CARD OF THANKS.
I am very grateful for the generous,
brotherly action of my dear people
since I have been disabled, and not to
them only, but to everybody in Con
yers. My recent painful attack has
prostrated me so that I have not been
able to visit the sick nor attend the
funeral of the dead. I hope I may
soon enter, in some small part at b ast,
upon this much needed pastoral work.
If I don’t come to see the sick or
well, it will be because I cannot.
Your brother,
„ H. J. Adams.
