My dear Maclean

Thank you for your letter. I hope you will get on well in your new situation. It is a great advantage to have Mr and Mrs Bean(?) to help and guide you. Above all things hold fast to your religious training.

"Godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come."

I send you a Book(?) herewith, which please accept as a parting memento. It will give me pleasure to have a letter saying how you are getting on. May God bless you and keep you near(?) Mr(?) Maclean.

Yours sincerely
