April 18 /39 Mr Bull Dear Cousin. Am writing to let you know Andrew passed to a better home early Easter morning April 9th. It was hard to part with him. and I know I am going to pass many a lonely hour. But I have four children and three in Laws and any of them would to all they can to make me comfortable. We know that God doeth all things well. and is to good to be unkind. Some day we will understand better why these things are. after the funeral they all decided I had better come to Fredericton with my daughter for a rest and perhaps to help forget. But that I can never do. I am always thinking of him. even when talking to others. of other things. I do not know just when I will be going home but not till the roads dry some. unless some thing happens unforeseen. We had a hard winter here especially March and April plenty of snow but the streets and roads are bare-now. The two boys are both growing fine the oldest is doing great at school the youngest will start in the fall and is looking forward to going the post-office at Smithtown has been out for a number of years. But Andrew always had his mail sent to Smithtown it always went to Hampton then back to Nauwigewauk where our mail comes. so I always have mine sent there. But at present it will be Smith's Vulcanizing Service Fredericton. New Brunswick. Best regards to all the Family. Almira K. Beyea. He will be glad to see you any time you can come. We saw Mr. Perkin's death before Andrew passed
