John is not sure he answered the Bishop's last letter because they have been waiting from week to week for him to come to Tiffin. They continue to be blessed with their share of health. In many places they are preparing against cholera and other diseases that are increased by uncleanness. Tiffin is just beginning to do this. He quotes Ward Beecher on the need of cleansing. Pillars, a lawyer, has been baptized by Father J. Behn Bean. He was a Methodist Swedenborgian and Episcopalian. He read with satisfaction Judge Peter Burnett's book which John is happy to see is being republished. He has just read the "Memoir and Sermons" of Father Baker. He liked also the life of Catherine McAuley. He asks if the Bishop has made up his mind to go to Europe. Bishop Amadeus Rappe is going, he has been told. Last night they had a pretty hard freeze. The brothers are all well. :: I-1-c A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
