From S. C. Hall   2 February 1856

Dear Sir,

I received with much satisfaction the contributions from your ??:

If the answer be small, the manner of collecting it is so gratifying as to increase its value two fold.

The touching remark you appended to your letter concerning the tranquil and peaceful death of your Mother, as contrasted with that of so many who have perished in the Crimea – is one that I shall keep to & hold ????

I am Rev Sir | your faithful servant | S.C. Hall
