"Not all young people lived such an easy life. Young Lloyd Van Hook, who had
recently gone to Danville, Virginia, to work, wrote a very touching letter home
to his father, Lawrence, on March 18, 1837. He was obviously quite homesick and
now filled with repentance for something that had occurred before he left for
the big city. `I should be very glad to see you all and all of my old
acquaintances. I should be very glad to see old Uncle Thomas Johnston's Family
it would afford me great pleasure to spend a week over the ground where I was
chiefly raised although I know that it would make me feel Melincholy still it
would afford me pleasure-but nay the time is past when I shall be as one of
your family-no more I shall enjoy the pleasing smiles of my little Brothers &
Sisters night after night, but nay, [i am] still absent from you all,
unfortunate and disobedient child that I am ..." (Continues on for a while).
