My Dear Charlotte,
     I wish you a very Happy, Happy Birthday. May it be Happy the entire year,
bring to you our Father's richest blessings, health, contentment, much Joy and
every good and needfull thing your heart may desire.
     I hope you are all well and that Berneice has fully recovered from her alements.
We are geting along as well as can be expected. I have been up to the yard the last
days but not ventured any farther.  I hope to be able to go to the store and the Bank
in a few days.  Mother is fealing well.  Geneva has been up each day but as you know
feels dumpey at times.  I am enclosing a poam you may like it.  It refurs to Jesus
coming in to the world and the posebilities of Gods children. Let me know if you
like it.
     We all send you our Love and best wishes to you and Family.
                                                                 Your Father
                                                                John H. Anderson

The dark, dark night is gone,
The shadows flee, the morning star apears
The Gods meet, in exaltent counsel held
Divine messingers from courts of glory speed
Exaltant new to earth did bring
Behold you King, not a septer brings
But humbly meekly our fathers wishes bring
My Child, Lost; yet open I Heavens portels for thee
Behold I am the way, the truth and the Life;
If you come unto me, and in my footsteps tred
I will pilet the way, your debts.  I will freely pay
Heavens gates will stand ajar, angels bid you enter there
Your name enroled and the Chorus Sing
Glory, Glory to God the King, Jesus triumphent wins.
