Transcription	West Chester July 11th 1875 My dear Mrs. Thompson Your letter of the 26th ult was duly received and I cannot express to you my utter surprise of the sad truth of my dear brother Samuel�s death. It was indeed a great shock to us all. We had no intimatation of his illness tho in his letter home in April he spoke of not feeling well- we little thought of it being anything of a serious nature. His afflicted family have my deepest sympathy indeed I sometimes think the close trials of this life are almost too hard to bear and if it was not for the comforting thought that we will meet again in that beautiful home beyond such separations would crush us. You speak of sister Sarah�s delicate health. I fear it will be too much for her frail strength but I hope for the sake of her son she will make the effort to bear this affliction that God in his providence has been fit to send upon her. It is a real comfort to think that our dear brother in his last moments had such kind friends to administer to his wants and soothe his afflicted family in their great sorrow- I thank you and your husband both Mrs. Thompson for your kindness to them and may I ask you not to forget poor Sarah & Fred- they will need your sympathy. I will write to Sarah very soon. Please give her my warmest love and tell her she claims my thoughts many times during the day. With many many thanks for your kind letter and expressions of sympathy I am very sincerely yours Emeline B. Mitchell
