Christian Gentlemen, and much honoured in the Lord.

Your constant prayers and pains for the promoting of the Kingdom of Christ Jesus in these ends of the earth, among these our poor Indians, is a work of sweet favour unto the Lord: and your labour of love bestowed therein; shall be assuredly rewarded, when the Lord shall say unto you (out of the riches of his free Grace) Come ye blessed of my Father, &c. and, what you did unto them, you did it unto me, and in that day, Blessed is the man who hath his hands full of such free will offerings. The Lord hath given us this amazing blow to take away my brother Mayhew. ^*
