Dear Dr Van Waters July, 12, 54

I was very glad to see you at the service last Sunday morning, 7-11-54.

You gave a very wonderful sermon.

I know the men hear appreciate your coming.

I would like to thank you and all the rest that were with you for coming.

I hope and pray that we will meet again soon at the service.

I know that god can help us.

I know from now on that God is going to leade me.

I would like at some time in the near future to have a visit with you.

Because I know you could help me with a problem I have,

Dear Dr Van Waters

I want to thank you for your note of the 22 of this month, and to tell you how dear we all respect you - I find it Hard to express in words what you mean to us. I think we are all wonder struck to realize that there is someone like you, willing to give the time that goes in to a program like S.D.G.

Its important to me that I earn the social Respect of every one out there also I want to Build a useful life and that I feel with people like yourself I can't go wrong.

Im looking Forward to someday meeting you, and may be I'll be able to realy express my thanks for I fear writing isn't one of my Best points - God Bless You -

allways your Friend
