There are many MARRIAGES here without the
display which Is intended at my wedding,
although such q splays are not unfre quent
As TO Mr.. Mott being at L, on the aIth. i
think he intends To be with you. Try and
induce him to be there on the 18th of June.
SARAH CATHARISE EATON.
On the 10th of June addressed Emanuel
Swcdenborg as follows: Ny Dear Teacher
am frequently asked, is the spirit world
real, substantial world, where the inhabi-
tants are engaged In useful occupations cor
respondentIal to those in this life. Do they
possess the five senses as they do here? Do
they eat and sleep and have their hours of
| labor, recreation and rest as in this LIE: An
answer from YOU. in your tsrSe and vigorous
style, would he instructive 10 man kind, and
eXce.dIT Civ Interesting 10 me. how are the
prrpaTHtlUnS for the nnptiHlS nrO1rpsSinps
To which he replied as usual, in his own
handwriting.tfac-- c--imiles of which have in
NV possession
Ny D-ar Pupil-YOurs OF the 10th before
me, for which bless yoI. ! have Just met
your daughter and her aunIy Jewett, on
their usual rsmblsS among the flowers and
snrubbery- The young miss was looking
charmingly. / remarked to her that she
locked too youthful for one who So soon
would Ire considered "A matron. She blushed
unde- the remark. and said she had fully
considered the step she WAS so soon to take.
The time Is set for June 2pth, from II a m. to
q. m. as you measure tim-- The Ceremony
OF uniting them Will be precisely AT
l2-noon-hy your time; so bear
that in mind. As TO the occupations
of the inhabitants OF this world they are as
real and as useful and more sO than those OF
earth life. For this is the reality of that, the
earth life. Earth life Is but the shadow of
this, the Spirit. Their senses are by far more
acute and r. fined We eat and drink or
what answers To that. W. labor simply for
the pleasure IL gives us. We neither SOW or
reap. Everything grows spontaneously. We
have all that We are entitled d To by pre- gres-
sion. We do not sleep and yet We have sea
sons of rest and recreation. IA well. We have
houses or mansions most beautifully deco
rated We have all that We are capable of
enjoying. Yours Truly,
EMANUEL SwEDENBDRG.
