and when my work on earth is done, And when my new work in heaven’s begun May I forget the crown I’ve won, While thinking still of others. Others, Lord, yes, others, Let this my motto be, Help me to live for others, That I may live for Thee. Please pray for me that I may be more Christ like every day. May God’s richest blessings be upon you and your little family always. Sincerely yours. Geo .W. Carver.

This letter from September 21, 1924, finds George Washington Carver writing to Mrs. Henry (Margaret Gillespie) Slagle. He shares a Christian inspirational poem entitled "Others," which encourages the reader to live selflessly and pursue the good of others above his or her own; his sharing of the poem is motivated by his perception of Mrs. Slagle and her husband and how their attitudes are reflected in their son, Thomas (Dick). In closing, Carver asks Mrs. Slagle to pray for him that his character might reflect Christ's, and he offers his hopes that God will bless her and her family.
