NOTES FROM REV bohAth
BISHOP.
From Texas Christian Advocate.

and so far as know | haven't help
ed anybody much, nor done any one
much good. But they love me all
the same. I have been wondering
why it is. Not many of them have
| told me so but lots Of them have a
way OF showing il without telling
me straight. Now. there is Abe Null
| key; IL he >ever said, Brother Bish-
op. love you" | don't remember
il, and / think | would have done
so. But | know IL without his say
| ing so. And there is DR.. Campbell.
I don't know for certain that he
ever told his wife that he loved her.
| But / know he does love her; aud
| me, too, in a less degree. But what
started me to thinking about 1t is,
| l have been sick; awfully sick. And
Sallie has been a heap sicker than
have. And our Christmas holi-
/ days we're interfered with very feel
ingly. But the love tokens that came
in were enough to humiliate q saint,
which | am not: only | have been
baptized and have got religion.
And now that | am back home,
here are piles of cards sent just to
make me and Sallie feel good. Now.
who would have thought that Conner
Woodward would have dropped me
a card all the way from Chicago?
And that just because he loves me.
| And here is one from Walter Lang
in Hillsboro, and another from Law
| son Lowry of the same place. No
business; just reminders. And here
| is one from Ben Crow. but / guess
he wants a dollar. not for himself
nor the little red Crows, but for that
church at Pleasant Hill. Well, may
be, | will give him a dollar some
time before he and Uncle Sump get
it out of debt. But Ben loves me or
he would not dare to write me for
money for his church. Bless my
life, here is one from Mollie Cox,
Fred's noble wife / knew she and
Fred always did love me, and they
do yet. Here is one from Italy,
guess who sent it. And it is o. X.
Here is another from Hillsboro with
no signature. Good gracious! Here
is one from the publishing house.
II it is dun l will just send it
back for / paid in full the middle of
November. No. it is not a dun
What has Emmett Hightower to say
now? Oh, this is a letter telling me
that he is on to his job. / knew
that before. He loves ME and I
am inclined to think he likes me,
too. but he hasn't said so yet; /
am listening for it. What is this
cute card about? All, | see. 1t is
from Will knight, mayor of Hills
boro. All right, Will, | am glad
to get it. but l knew it any how.
Texas Women's College sendeth
greetings. l baptized Boaz; and had
delightful year with Jimdandy.
Likewise his good wife, and glad to
hear from them. Here is a lovely
card with blue ribbon around it.
1t is from the whole Mcmillan fam
lily. including John and Sister Burk-
halter. Bless their souls. If they
don't all land in the new Jerusalem
by and by, it won't be because their
parents did not do their duty. But
believe the whole bunch will get
there. Well, sir; who is this send
ing US a nice card from Dallas? All.
might have known it was Brother
Josephus Lee and wife and their
son. Umphrey. A glorious trio.
am glad they love me. Here is the
neatest little card from Doctor Ivan
Lee Holt, I wonder how he found
out that he loves me. | have just
got acquainted with him. I know
now. 1t is his environment. But by
and by he will love me independ-
emily of that.
Now, just as | expected, here is
one from John and Ollie Guthrie. /
can't do that subject justice. They
don't mind telling me that they love
me any old time. And here are the
Carraways. How often have they
made me feel happy in their home.
They are bound to love me because
they have always done so many nice
things for me. OF course. while we
were sick in Dallas, Lee and Ger
trude Penn and Miss Alpha remem-
bered US with love tokens and-oth-
erwise. John r. Nelson. bless his
soul. he is above suspicion. But
| am glad TO get the card if I did
know it already. ]. d. and wife
sent one besides the T. W. c. meet
