Woodside Thursday 28th Nov. 1878
My poor motherless boy,
God has again chastised me by taking your mother from us.She died this morning at 10 3/4 oclock. Her sufferings were short but severe, having only been taken sick on Monday. She died without fear trusting in our Lord Jesus.
What is to become of us, what is to become of your little sisters, yourself, and Johnie? I am stunned by this blow and am a forever heart-broken man.
Tell your Aunt Sue, your uncle & grandmother that she spoke of them a few moments before she died. Tell them to pray for me. I am a poor heart-broken man.
Your devoted
Father
