I am getting well! Bless the Lord, O my soul! Life, health,
and happiness dawn on my trembling view again! . . . Dr. Stone came to see me a
few hours after I arrived; two days after, he called again; this morning I
walked out to meet him when he was announced, and he asked me how my sister
was. When I told him I was myself, “God bless my soul! You don't say so!” he
exclaimed, evidently astonished at the resurrection.
