Kijabe B.E.Africa, Mar. 23
1911
Dearest
Mother:
Our
hearts are so sad tonight for we received 2 such sad letters
yesterday. First from Rumuruti Little Karl Barnett after 10
days of
fever and before the Dr. could reach them died Mar. 16.
Barnetts may
be here in the morning. We were all feeling so bad about that
when a
2nd letter came from Mrs. Sywulka at Nasa, G.E.A.
telling
of the sudden death of Mr Wall. How our hearts bleed for poor
Miss
Jacobson his betrothed. Mrs. S. wrote no details only that he
hadn’t
been feeling well for a few days but was very ill only 2 days.
Had
been in the country but 2 months. and so strong and robust
looking. We can’t understand it all but we know it’s His
will,
and that’s sufficient. We are all well. No development in
plans
as yet.
Lovingly, Florence
