Chapter 7<br />
Enosburg, Vt.,<br />
Oct. 15, 1859<br />
My Dear Edson: The Lord has been very<br />
merciful <strong>to</strong> me on this journey, and has given me<br />
better health than I have had for one year. I have<br />
felt quite light-hearted, and at times have felt <strong>the</strong><br />
sweet peace of God resting upon me. How is it<br />
with you, Eddie? Are you any homesick, or do you<br />
keep so busy you do not find time <strong>to</strong> be homesick?<br />
I suppose your time is all usefully employed. We<br />
do not mean that you shall work all <strong>the</strong> time. Light<br />
work will not hurt you, but be healthy exercise for<br />
you. We hope you will make some progress in your<br />
studies while we are absent. Be faithful, dear<br />
Eddie, and take a right course, that those who so<br />
kindly care for you may love and respect you. I<br />
have been so grateful <strong>to</strong> hear such good news from<br />
you, that you were trying <strong>to</strong> do right, and that you<br />
had not been wrong, or caused <strong>the</strong> family grief that<br />
you are with.<br />
