Talk about suffering here below

And let's keep following Jesus.

Traditional Spiritual

Those who want to die quickly, go to Carolina

Many are dead. Many are running away to new settlements. The country is very sickly; I buried eight people the first nine weeks after I came to my parish. Forty two is looked upon to be the common age of man.
