We are quite well, but much worn with watching and anxiety. Elder Butler attends the funeral tomorrow. A very sad house we have tonight, so different from when you were here. Wish you could write a few lines to Lucy. Ellen White was at her Healdsburg home in California when she received this letter, and her handwritten reply must have been sent without taking time to make a copy for her files.

And there is hope in thine end, saith the Lord, that thy children shall come again to thine own border. This promise is yours. You may be comforted and trust in the Lord. The Lord has often instructed me that many little ones are to be laid away before the time of trouble. We shall see our children again.
