am not so well cannot write much. Aunt Sarah is pretty well and is still living with Annie E. She thinks they will live together - it was so very sad for Anna to loose her Husband under such circumstances.
Well 1903 is nearing its close. let us all walk with our Saviour who has done so much for us. closer than Ever before. with Gods help.
I wish you all a very Happy Christmas and Happy New Year
