DEAR BROTHER: On the day before yes
terday received a letter from Harriet, writ
ten at Greenup. She says that she has just
returned from your house, and that father is
very low, and will hardly recover. She also
says that you have written me two letters,
and that although you do not expect me to
come now, you wonder that do not write.
| received both your letters, and although /
have not answered them, it is not because
nave forgotten them or been uninterested
about them, but because it appeared to me
could write nothing which could do any
good. You already know / desire that neith-
er father nor mother shall be in want of any
comfort, either in health or sickness, while
they live; and / feel sure you have not failed
to use my name, If necessary, to procure a
doctor, or anything else for father in his
present sickness. My business is such that
/ could hardly leave home now, if it was not
as 1t is, that my own wife is sick AIDED.
sincerely hope father may yet recover his
health; but at all events tell him to remem-
Der to call upon and confide in our great
and good and mercful Maker, who will not
turn away from him in any extremity. He
| Iotes the faf5rf a STlaTTu aud nnIlhers the
the dying man who puts his trust in Him.
Say to him that if we could meet now, it is
doubtful whether it would not be more pain
full than pleasant; but that if It be bis lot to
go now, he will soon have joyous NEE ing
with many loved ones gone before, and
where the rest of us, through the help Of
God, hope ere long to join them.
Write to me again when you receive this
Atfectionately, A. LINCOLN.
