My dear Mrs Stanford
You will doubtless be surprised, at the reception of a letter from an entire stranger, but having suffered all the berevements, [sic] which you have passed through, my poor heart was filled with such deep loving sympathy for you, in this deep affliction, I felt I must write to you, although I well know from sad experience, that such sorrows as you have passed through
[left side]
most fortunate of the living often find hard to bear, It is but the thinning hide of the radiant portals that open out in the joyous light and beauty, the deathless bloom and everlasting peace of Paradise.
May you now in this sorrow, and through all your life have that peace and comfort, which can only come from our Heavenly Father, is the earnest prayer of one who would love to be numbered among your friends.
Faithfully and sincerely
