Dear Mimi,
How are you my dear sister? I hope you are fine. Don't worry about me; I am very fine. I am now a very strong young man you know. How are those wonderful brothers of mine? Pass them my greetings.
I received you letter. Thanks a million for writing. The brothers and sisters in my congregation are fine. I am only sorry to heat that Br. Banda is still sick. I hope he will recover soon.
My journey back here was fine, though it was quite a long one. I wanted to travel by CR bus but guess what; all the wretched buses wee full so I had no choice but to travel by a small Rosa bus. The journey took seven hours. \By the time we reached, my legs were tired and my bottom was severely sore, ugh! Next time, I promise , I'm not gonna use one of 'em tiny buses!
I am glad you have a new literature teacher. Work very hard Mariam, I know you can do it. Follow that plan I gave you and put your heart to it, You will be successful . I am glad you are Liberian. Did I tell you what that I am librarian to, eh?
Finally Mariam, I would like to wish you all the best in your studies and all your endeavors. Don't forget God. I love you and miss you; can't wait see you again..
Take care
