ET: Most intimately joined with you in your mortal danger, marveling I see with a happy heart sparks of renewed hope. You would, called to the heavenly precincts, both among my followers and especially for me, leave behind a great vacuum.

When H.J.A.M. Schaepman, who had fallen seriously ill in Rome, appeared to be on the mend, Kuyper sent him this telegram during the week of January 12, 1903 (p. 54):

Ex intimo pectore tecum in periculo mortis colligatus renovatae spei scintillas laeto corde admiror. Tantum inter meos quoque, mihi praesertim, vacuum in caelestia avocatus relinqueris.

Schaepman answered the telegram with the following message (KA 154): “God be thanked that I can enter the good fight with renewed strength with my companion in the good fight. Mors pie accepta vitam renovat [Death accepted piously renews life].” Schaepman died on January 21, 1903, and one of the first condolence telegrams (p. 57) came from Kuyper (see 1903.03).
