I hope the good providence of God will fill you with thankfullness - your letter was also a matter of grief as well as gladness, to hear of my 3 dear sisters being taken off - I cant inform you how my mind was effected - a circumstance I so little expected O dear Mrs. N. How uncertain the comforts of life - and even life itself, these things considered; what, what, manner of women ought we to be in all holy conversation and godlyness, O let us consider that altho they are no more, yet they are a Voice to us to be doubly diligent in the work of the Lord = O that
