Abstract
George C. Knapp letter to Justin Perkins. Knapp tells Perkins that he is grateful for the opening of spring and more direct and regular communication with Perkins. Knapp writes about the health of Mrs. Burbank (Sarah S. Burbank) who Knapp describes as having been strangely cheerful in a forced and studied effort after the death of her son but the strain was too much and now she was a wreck, her body wasted away, she frequently seeks solitude when conversations became unsettling, and she came near to having inflammation of the brain. Knapp says Mrs. Knapp (Alzina M. C. Knapp) has been very taxed in caring for her friend and the Burbanks are about to embark on a tour to restore health. Knapp notes that Mr. Burbank (Lysander T. Burbank) had confessed that he would not be surprised if there was no full recovery. Knapp reports that the work of the mission was encouraging, the theology class has made good progress, and a new church with five members opened last month.
