ALL THE LETTERS IN THIS LOT

Dear ""Julie"" Feb th

Received your letter but failed to find the ""tract"" you was supposed to put in Guess you forgot it Glad to hear you all had a nice Christmas and most of all glad to hear you are all so happy and have let the Lord into your lives It sure does make one feel much happier no matter how often these little trials come up As you say it draws us closer to the Lord You must all feel very happy about Johns folks asking the Dear Savior as their Savior Were they all immersed and has John ever been The verse that song you wrote to me is sure true It must be very cold for John to work up on Coney Island in the winter time

It has been very cold here the last week or two Have to have three gas stoves most all day Coldest they have had for years But no snow or ice to walk on and your face or feet don freeze If one is dressed warm it is lovely I want to tell you what we have on our beds at night We don have any heat in house at night Aunt Lillie sleeps between cotton blankets has a heavy cotton comfort on and a feather comfort on that It looks like a feather bed only it is quilted like a comfort and then her spread I sleep on a cotton blanket Have a sheet of wool blanket a new heavy double cotton blanket a heavy cotton comfort a white spread And then I double another double cotton blanket in hold and put that over top of my bed am not any to warm

With these little hen houses and no heat at night You just feel like you are sleeping in the open One sure sleeps fine if you have enough bed clothes Lots of people have had to take hot rum or hot water bottle to bed with them to keep warm during the cold snap Lots of suffering among the poor who haven enough warm bed clothes Wish I had plenty of money just for one reason and that is to help the poor have warm clothing and bed cloths in winter Lillie I guess you won get hurt or mad at Aunt

He is say now A man came to services not long ago and said he wanted to be prayed for And that he was miserable He was loosing his hearing Why when I go to a show I just can t hear any thing they say I want to be prayed for so I get my hearing The speaker says he wanted his hearing so he could hear what they say at the show

He said most people wont believe in the healing until they are healed He said a man promised him a fine pair of shoes He said he said he hasn t got the shoes yet but that didn t stop him from thanking the man He said he thanked him so much that the man may give him two pairs Tell the dogs I love them

Don t wait to thank God for our healing until we get it Thank him and trust him when we ask And we sure will get it I wish I could be strongest in my faith and take my healing But I can

Take a short break with our 1 minute survey, simple questions that are an enjoyable distraction.

expect to get it when I am holding on to the Lord with one hand and the Shoe with the other and allow the terrible fear to come over him when my beach get to hurting me so Fear I believe is one of the worst thing we have to fight

Mrs McPherson is away now and they have a good speaker at temple His name is Mitchel He isn t so expectable as Mrs McPard preaches fine sermons I don t go to temple It is too far away and take almost a whole day to go and Uncle Harry won t go on Sundays

Have to get them so early to get a seat We go up to Christian Church in Bell some times A good speaker up there then we listen write a fine speaker by the name of Mathews His church is called the church of the open door

I never heard a finer speaker and you can tell he is loved by all from the letters he gets from people
