Very Dear Brother-- -- In the multiplicity of Cares and Business public and private to which I know you are attentive - I know you will allow a moment just to run over a scrawl from an old Friend. - - The repeated Opportunities I have had with the Major (your Son) gave me great Satisfaction, and the more because he could inform me of the State of his dear Father and Family. It seems you still continue alone though in the midst of a world full of people and a large domestic Circle. Perhaps it is best - you must be the best Judge. I hope you still continue to do GOOD - as I trust you have been accustomed to so many Years. It feels to me sometimes that I do none and never did. But we don't know. Reverend Mr. Kirkland 1795 Reverend: Samuel Kirkland Clinton State of New York As to news - Sickly in many places - rather distressing at New Haven - Camp Distemper. Numbers have died - are not the Judgments of a holy God somehow glorious as well as awful, on such a sinful World - and especially on such a sinful people as Connecticut! Dr. Dwight is inaugurated and presided at Commencement last Wednesday - saw Brother Hart who is appointed missionary in New Hampshire and Vermont east side of the Mountain - unexpectedly the General Association has appointed poor me to go again - and I have given encouragement that I will try, Deo Vol: - Part of my Mission is in your Quarter - i.e. to the Unadilla and so up to Fort Stanwix etc. I have it in Expectation to be in those Parts about the middle or latter part of October. - in company partly with Brother St-- who is also going - hope it may please God to give us an agreeable Interview at your House or near it. My best Friend joins me in Love to you and yours. I am now and ever Your affectionate Friend and Brother A. R. Robbins . Rev. Mr. Kirkland .

I find the Dutch Minister such a Person or rather Parson as I never conversed with before, yet I understand there is another like him. He sais Mr Mosely agreed very well with him; (believe it's true) O that old things may be done away and forgotten and all things become new and the Kingdom of the glorious glorious Redeemer be extended far and wide in these Deserts; when you write me again please to send these words translated into Indian, "thou thoughtest that I was altogether such a one as thyself but will reprove thee and set thy sins in order before thee." perhaps you have something wrote upon the Subject that will be serviceable. Our Father still holds his integrity (Adam) takes great care of me, presents his Love to you, is on good Health, says he stands in need of but one thing, that is, the divine assistance to enable him to persevere in the ways of Godliness; rejoices to hear of your welfare; but bemoans your condition so far separate from your Dear Partner. That you may enjoy the communion and consolation of the Holy Spirit, which is better than any earthly companion, is the prayer of your affectionate Brother, A. Crosby For Reverend Samuel Kirkland Missionary at Kanenwarohare Mr. Crosby, January 29, 1774
