Abstract
Harriette Rawlinson (later Pye-Smith) letter to Justin Perkins in which Rawlinson remarks on "the changes which the opposition of the Jesuits & the persecution or unfriendly feeling of the Government" have made in Perkins' mission. She mentions Miss Fisk's (Fidelia Fiske) book. Rawlinson goes on to discuss Ellen's illness "in consumption" and the emotional effect of it, writing of faith in God. She also says that before the year closes she expects to lose her sister Mary, who will then be married and move London. She writes of loneliness and the comfort that one day they will all meet in "our Father's house above." She also shares that their prayer meetings are not what they used to be and there are not many instances of conversion. She mentions a visit from Reverend Baptist Noel.
