Dear Miss Sue,
	Oh! how I wish I might say one word to help you bear your burden of sorrow, the heaviest 
sorrow that ever comes to one. I know only too well how you are suffering and how you will miss 
your mother - such a dear, sweet mother. I can only tell you that I am thinking constantly of 
you and that your loss is my loss too.
	With much love and sympathy for each of your loved ones, 
			I am ever your friend, Bessie J. Hutchison*
