eye you do not speak to me you are as dry as an old Cabage leaf
wilted up you have not the spirit of God & you have tryed to ride
me for years & If you do not wake up & do your duty I will
ride you & that to with sharp spurs I feel to rebuke you in the
name of the Lord & Brother Woodruff you wright it that it
