be present on that memorable occasion that my heart will be present and will rejoice with each and every ones in that assembly- I have been away from Colum bia since October 11 1853 and never for a day have I ceased to love Columbia and all her good citizens and the older I grow the more do I think of my native place I am now nearing the close of my earthly pilgrimage and it would have given me su ¬ preme pleasure to have again- met all whom I may have once known or even heard of in the enjoyment of such an occasion I have an impression that the great majority of those whom F knew mylars agone have PassedL over to a Better country and r- am living in hopes qf being able again to meet all those who gave their lives to the cause of xther dear Saviour where we will not be called on to
