One of the letters was written to inform him that his wife, Sarah Ann, had died of consumption.' The latest Washington paper was dated April 13. Henry received a letter from Martha Bristol in England, dated February 22, 1851. She wrote: My Dearest Henry: Your letters do indeed bring peace to my mind and joy to my soul, and for such blessings how can I sufficiently thank you. Although we are, at present, divided by a distance of ten thousand miles, my feelings have been such that the greater the distance the more firm and sincere my affections have grown. Who can tell but our separation may still be for years; but, if even so, I am thine forever and thine alone. I kindly thank you for the cheering hopes you give me of the happy return (by the blessing of God) being sooner than we may perhaps expect, but whether or not, dear Henry, I do not murmur or repine, knowing and feeling that if we both continue faithful in the Lord all will work together for good, both for our temporal and eternal welfare. I am very comfortable at this quiet and retired spot and do think I never enjoyed such good health in all my life. Dearest Henry, I am still your faithful friend. It is true as you say I have had a deal to contend with so to remain, but I feel so l l l y convinced that your opinions are right, all England could not persuade me to the contrary. I devote what leisure time I have to reading the books you were so kind as to send me, which help to increase my faith on the important subject, and I am anxiously looking forward to the happy time when we shall both walk hand in hand together in the path of life. I will write to you again shortly and conclude my present letter with affectionate love and constant prayer for your welfare and happiness, and believe me
