31_days challenge "one by one the nights will fall". Mattie was Doc's cousin, and a nun. They wrote each other throughout their lives.
Dearest Mattie ~
I find myself taken by a peculiar mood this eve; please pardon me, if you would. The weather has turned cold. The year grows short, and something gathers on the horizon like clouds piling dark before the storm. I doubt it will pass so quickly. One by one the nights will fall and I wonder who will fall with them. I do not fear for myself but for those who have become my family in these empty lands. Though I shall protect them with what life is left in me, I fear failure. Pray for them.
Your J.H.H.
