                                                                   "My dear Bro. Ward,

                                                                   Many, many thanks for
                                                                   your letter of Jan. 4th.

                                                                   How it lifted up my very

                       I did indeed feel very badly for a while, not that the

                       cynical criticism was directed at me, but rather at the

                       religion of Jesus Christ. Dear Bro. I know that my
                       Redeemer liveth."
