Notes

A letter from Elizabeth Raulston to Jane Raulston giving the circumstances of Patsy's death:

At Home, May 7, 1832

Dear Sister,

I avail myself of this opportunity of writing to you that you may once more hear the language of your old friend and associate for I never expect to see you again unless you visit your old settlement for I am utterly unable to travel any distance but thee hope to see you and brother James sometime and would be glad to hear from you often as I am deprived of your company.

I am in tolerable health at present. I must here relate the death of Pasty Byrne who took her departure on the 10th of last month. She left home about seven weeks before she died and came here on horseback but was very much fatigued when she arrived and gradually grew weaker until the period of her dissolution. She expressed the strongest confidence in God until the last and gently sank to rest in the arms of the dear Redeemer. You must know something of the trouble I feel which is inexpressible but it is much appeased when I contemplate the happy time when my children shall all, with all the followers of Immanuel be restored again to their parents where parting shall be no more.

Yours affectionately until death Elizabeth Jared
