I am here, John Wesley:
Let me write a line. I was present tonight at the services over
your daughter's remains, and saw what a wonderful congregation of
high and beautiful spirits was there. Your bands were present and
the Master was shedding his love and influence over the mourners
and near ones. Your daughter's spirit was also present, and although
it seemed a little strange to her that she should be outside her
body and could look upon it as it lay cold and dead, yet she understood
and was quite happy that so many of her friends were there displaying
their sympathy and love. Of course, your wife was present and was
radiantly happy in her love for you and her boys and her other relatives.
She had her daughter close by her side and was telling her of the
truths of the resurrection as the minister read the services, and
especially how the Great Love of the Father is necessary to the
true resurrection and heaven.
It was a glorious evening with the spirits, and no sorrow or unhappiness
was with them, only their sympathy for the human grief of those
who did not know the truth of the liberation of the spirit from
the bondage of the flesh.
Well, I might tell you many things which occurred among the spirit
visitors, but I am admonished not to write more, so will say good
night.
Your brother in Christ,
John Wesley
