Friend Guernsey,
Your Excellent letter of Feb 14th is at hand, was received last evening with a hearty welcome, by our little household.
Though we have other inter-esting correspondents at Henryville you would do us injustice, if you should suppose your letters any the less interesting to us.
We sympathise with your self and family in your mutual affliction, nevertheless with you we feel that your little one has been taken to form another link in the chain of God's providences which are designed to bring you nearer to Christ.
Your testimony accords with the testimony of others as to the
