My dear Ma
as I am thinking of you and asking God to
fill all the vacant places in your heart, I will just write
you a short letter. I was to a good meeting to day a young lady
who is is just going on a missionary spoke and told her expearence,
how she was converted and called [of ? at ?] Got to India there
were not many dry eyes when they sang about the millions dying
with out Jesus, and a Soldier boy was home on furlo and he testified
how he was able to talk to the unsaved ones I though how you
would enjoy it -
