Hubbard.
"I am sorry, boys. It is my work the reason why you are out here.
If I did not come out here you would have been at your home and
having all that you need and would not meet death so soon."
I told him not to be troubled by that. "If we didn't want to come
we could have stayed at home. So don't put the blame on yourself."
He also told Wallace if he got out to write the story for Mrs.
Hubbard.
Mr. Hubbard was very sleepy. So we did not sit up so long as we
have done before. Mr. Wallace read three chapters to us. Mr.
Hubbard chose thirteenth chapter First Corinthians, and I the
seventeenth chapter St. John's Gospel, and Mr. Wallace fourteenth
chapter St. John. Mr. Hubbard fell asleep when Mr. Wallace was
nearly through reading the second chapter, that is, the seventeenth
chapter. Mr. Hubbard slept good all night, and hardly ever moved
till morning, when I wakened him and gave him a cup of hot tea and
some bone broth. I also slept good all night and didn't hardly
wake up till just before daylight. Mr. Wallace kept on a fire all
night and wrote a farewell letter to his sisters.
Sunday morning, October 18th, I got up and boiled those bones
again, putting in just a little of the pea meal in the broth, and
also tea we had for breakfast.
