I have been away from Columbia since October 11 1853 andnever for a day have I ceased tolove Columbia and all her goodcitizens and the older I growthe more do I think of my nativeplace I am now nearing theclose of my earthly pilgrimageand it would have given me su¬

preme pleasure to have again-met all whom I may have onceknown or even heard of in theenjoyment of such an occasion

I have an impression that thegreat majority of those whom Fknew mylars agone have PassedLover to a Better country and r-am living in hopes qf being ableagain to meet all those who gavetheir lives to the cause of xther
