Ask a question.

Went to church this morning. Mr. Goodspeed of Janesville preached for us. He gave us a very good sermon. Staid to Bible Class. It seemed good to be in our old church once more. Mr. Campbell came to see me in the afternoon, remained to tea, and accompanied us to church in the evening.
