Brooklyn
After a while we all managed to gather at Breakfast (Mr. W. when we were about thro') and there Mrs. J. Mama, Dem & I got ready & started for church - in the Putnam & Halsey St. car We went thro' the business district - past the dry goods stores & City Hall & Belcher statue &c to Orange St. where we got off & walked a few steps to Plymouth Church the most plain, quiet re- freshing, good-feeling place. A nice little old man to show you your pew & make you comfortable and nice in- tellectual & sometimes queer, but never vulgar looking people in the congregation. The singing - tho' un- pretentious - was unusually good - I liked the Soprano especially. The sermon by Lyman Abbott was simply great. It was God in Nature. (text somewhere in psalms) It was fine & made one feel above this earth). That Life is only a play - real life only comes when the curtain of Death is down. Death is not the tragedy - only this earthly life is - the cyclone & the thunderbolt are
