1833.01.06 - Elizabeth Huntington to Mary Huntington, Jan. 6th, 1833

Elizabeth Whiting Phelps Huntington is writing a letter to her daughter Mary. It is the evening of the Sabbath, and Elizabeth has taken the time to remind Mary of some important aspects in pleasing the Lord. She reminds Mary of the importance of taking time to pray to the Lord, for this will benefit the world as a whole. Elizabeth reminds her daughter that taking the time for watchful prayer will benefit not only her, but everyone. Mary’s brother William will also be visiting in the morning.
