Henry Hastings Hall to Sarah Bracher, 5 August 1872
Mandurah Aug 5th 1872
My dear Sister,
I have only time by this mail to send you a hasty line thanking you for the very nice books, but if you had seen Leslie’s face when they were opened, that would have been thanks enough. I also have to thank Mr George for the Bye laws and I will write him also. When you wrote me from Sydney you did not say when you would leave and by return mail I wrote you there, directing “if left it was to be opened” by the Gibsons and then forwarded to you. I have not heard anything of Letitia’s illness. Shake is on his way to Singapore to get some pearl-divers for Nickol Bay — people who go properly to work can make certain of £50 a month clear of expenses and some make a good deal more. A Synod has just been established here and last Wednesday I was elected one of the two members to represent the Murray District in this Church Parliament so you see I am not getting any lower in the estimation of the people. We are all well and with very kind love to your husband Fanny and the rest.
Ever most affectly
Yours
H H Hall
