We are very disappointed to hear that you cannot come out for a visit. We have been looking forward to seeing you and father this summer. It is too bad but cannot be helped. Maybe some time we will be able to go home.  I am still trying to hold the service on Sunday. Ben helped me last Sunday. Mr. Johnston, the Methodist Minister in the Fort wants me to be Steward for here and I have promised to act which will mean I suppose I will join the Methodists here. I do not mind joining as they seem the only alive Church out here. Steward's work is to look after the financial part at Riverside.  Love to all.
