My Dear Mrs Stone,
My heart is with
you in your sickness -
Many times each day
I send you brain waves,
and pray God you may
soon be well again -
I owe you a great
debt for all the

work you have done
for woman.  You will
be a figure in history
as long as the world
shall endure.  And
your influence will
go on through eternity.
What a life has been
yours, so gentle so
[?], - so persuasive
and strong.  What a
life awaits you in
the great progress

of the ages - You
have drawn us to
you with love that
binds us to your dear
heart very closely.  We
are ashamed, the younger
women in this work,
that we do so little
while you do so much.
Please let this little
note bear to you my
love and tenderest

sympathy in your
suffering -
Mary Seymour Howell —


Mrs. Lucy Stone
