I am here, Robert G. Ingersoll:
I would like to finish my message tonight if agreeable to you.
Well, under the circumstances, I do not think it best to write tonight, and I will postpone it as you say.
I am very happy and progressing, thanks to that dear grandmother of yours. She is a wonderful spirit with a mind as clear as her soul is pure. I cannot tell you how much I owe to her, and her teachings and love.
That is just what I want to write about, and I know that it is the important thing in the whole plan of God for man’s salvation. So I will write on that after I have finished the message which I have already commenced.
I thank you and will say good-night.
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Ingersoll
