Canton
Sept 10th 1889
My dear Clara,
I wished to
write to ever so many
of the Seville friends
by this mail but when
ever I take up a pen
I want to write home
and nowhere else Do
give them all my
warm love be sure and
tell Mrs Beam I
often think of her.
Martha just came
over bringing little Flora
Gilman. The poor little
thing misses her sister
so and wants to find
her. She could not

eat any dinner.
It is very touching
to see her. Mr
Gilman we hope
will be back tonight.
Now we must send
the letters it seems strange
when you wrote there
were eleven in the
home and now I
suppose there are
only three. I think
you will enjoy having
a little quiet and rest
and perhaps after a
time it will seem
less lonely. We can
always look [u] forward [/u].
I am glad Henry could
preach for Mr Notestein.

1889 年 9 月 10 日
我亲爱的克拉拉，
我希望通过这封邮件给塞维利亚的许多朋友写信，
但每当我拿起笔时，
我就想写回家，
别无他处 比姆夫人 我经常想起她。
玛莎刚刚带着小弗洛拉吉尔曼过来了。
可怜的小东西很想她的妹妹，
想要找到她。
她不能吃任何晚餐。
见到她非常感人。
我们希望吉尔曼先生今晚能回来。
现在我们必须把信寄出去，
当你写信时家里有十一个，
而现在我想只有三个，
这似乎很奇怪。
我想你会喜欢安静和休息，
也许一段时间后它会显得不那么孤独。
我们总是可以向前看。
我很高兴亨利可以为诺特斯坦先生传教。

爱所有人
再见了这次海蒂
