2 may be true - To my Dear Doctor Van Waters No Man - Woman - Child or Beast can ever make me believe that almighty God has things happen - such has in the past & present - To a Woman who has befriended Thousands of Yes - I will say Men - Women & Children - Put you throu hours of heartache hours of tragic sorrow
To that is not merciful Why Does God Do such things to you - They say One receives their rewards in Heaven - I asked God Last Evening & This morning as I attended Holy Mass - Which I offered for your intentions To give to you - Relief of sleep Sorrow - Shower Upon you on Earth His rewards in the material things of life & With all my heart I pleaded him to your good health

To say say me a sorry for what has occured in the short past would be putting it mild. Dr Van Waters can you Sincerely ever forgive me for what has happened As I pen this note my mind gets back to the Day of Childhood when I was taught the reason of the Holy Season of Lent - About our Lord and His Disciples - St Peter for Jesus Christ Love & made head of all Disciples - Our Lord forgave Peter tho he Denied him thrice. I feel shall I say like Peter Christ Gave to Him Everything So Did You Dr Van Waters Give to me yet I didn't think that of no one but myself. Selfish may I Be - I didnot mean Again they say God does things for a purpose - I am bitter Against religions only its hurts to see the one you love & know feeling hurt

Dear Dr Van Waters
This is Sat evening & I am rather tired, be it my first day out for over a month. I was more than happy for your companionship.
Is it myself, that has changed or what was the matter today that our Rangers were not & did not stick together as we always did.
Rangers are Rangers - be it here or afar - A warm - Handshake to help me & others - not only in their hrs of need but always - Maybe the weather was the cause - It was very cold I know.
Dr Van Waters have you ever really forgiven me for what happened over the House - It pray on my mind

than words can ever express. Being with you. Watching every move you make & cherishing every smile that come my way. At Mass this AM I offered the most sacred part of the Service my Dear Dr for your Intention praying to God that he would take care of your Cold & let no harm befall you.
This evening a beautiful sight I saw - 2 little Babes in their momies arms being received into the arms & heart of Christ.
You are at this time on your way to make a speech - beautiful memories I have of the one I attended
No matter where ever you are this evening. My heart, My thoughts & prayers, they are humble. They are so Sincere Are all for you
Lonesome I feel when you are not within range of my seeing you
Selfish again this feeble mind of mine
Good night

long into the night. I pray dear Dr that Almighty God will whisper in your ear, & tell you, that I did not mean, to ever, bring to you, sorrow heartache & pain.
I could write forever. The meaining behind each word can never express how I actually felt. The shame that still encased within my humble heart.
?? of this, writing to someone as dear & kind as you are to me could continue long into the night.
Good night & May God Bless you Forever my Friend
