Mary wrote, "Mr. Rabb thinks as much of Bob as he does his own. Bob joined the church last summer. He is exactly one year younger than Cyrus. The last letter I got from Sister and Cyrus said Mr. Wiggins had joined and Cyrus wanted to join the church. Sister said now she and her husband could commune together. Did she tell you about her little bit of a baby only weighed 9 lb at two months old. She said she wanted us to look for her a home in Northern Texas."
