I need not mention the gratification it afforded me, for your letters have always that happy influence. I am sorry, however, that temporalities should oppress you, when scarcely setting out in life. I have long borne them, and they have become familiar. If your finances will not admit of affording me a little present relief towards completing my house, make yourself entirely easy. I can cheerfully encounter a thousand difficulties rather than see a favorite Son attacked by a single one. My embarrassments and disappointments from almost every quarter I shall not mention. Should it be consistent with your present situation, I wish you to enclose me, in a letter by post, 50 or 100 dollars or more if convenient. I believe it may come safe. It is probably your Brother George will visit you early in the winter, if there be snow. All things considered, I think my daughter Jerusha ought to show you the purport of the enclosed, and take your advice being so far from family connexions. The The subject is very delicate. Who at present can be a more faithful, judicious and affectionate counselor than a dear Brother? Amidst all the variety and little cares of life I can't forget your important office and the situation in which you are placed. I wish you every day to thank Christ Jesus your Lord who hath enabled you, for that he wanted you faithful, hath put you into the ministry. Set the Lord always before you as your teacher and example. As a preacher he gave himself wholly to his work; he loved it; it was his meat and his drink. Let the nature, importance, and success of your office follow you into all places and into all companies and direct the whole course of your conduct. May your time and talents be all consecrated time and talents. Where much is given, the requirement will be proportionable. My heart's desire is, that the Lord may keep you, and make you an able, faithful, and skillful minister, and wise in winning souls to Christ. I expect to write you again shortly - and be a little more particular as to domestic affairs, with some Indian information. Yours, etc. S. Kirkland . P.S. This moment received yours of the 5th instant - thank you for the enclosed. Shall be very glad of the next quarterly payment by the time; accept ( ) P.S. I am exceedingly anxious for the education of my son Sammy, but cannot at present advance anything towards it. P. S. 2d. Please seal the enclosed - having no wafers.

Abstract: Samuel Kirkland regrets that his son should so early in life be worried about temporalities. George will probably be visiting Thornton soon.

At this point, Samuel regrettably cannot contribute for the education of Sammy.
