Dear Sr:-In our last interview [ ex
pressed to you the hope of being able to
meet with the Old Settlers of Rock Island

it,and write this to assure you of my negret,

quaintance began more than generation
since.
At my time Of life can scarcely expect
another opportunity will be afforded me
atone of these public gatherings; which
occasions me the more regret that | must
| lose this one, for showing my interest in
those who remain of the pioneers of Rock
Island county. rejoice heartily in the
prosperity which has attended the labors
of the pioneers to build up society, and
though [ had neither wealth, or talent to
make me conspicuous in it'll cannot charge
myself with failure to cooperate. as far as
| was able, with those who labored to pro-
duce it-at any rate my heart has been in
it; and / have rejoiced with you all in the
success of our efforts to establish happy
homes, in which we might rear our
lposterity in comfort and virtue,
We have been permitted to establish the
institutions of education aud religion 10
which to train our children, and, if those
who come after as neglect to avail them
selves of the advantage provided by our
) labor and self denied, they will not be able
to change as with neglect, when they stand
by the graves in which we are resting.
