Note from Bro. White.

By James White

DEAR BRETHREN : I wish to briefly state in reference to myself as follows :

1. My faith in the present truth is unshaken, and the great desire with me is to receive strength to take some humble part in the work.

2. In some respects I consider my condition somewhat improved, yet I do not gain flesh, and am very thin and weak from want of sleep, and from the painful results of dyspepsia.

3. I cannot read or write but very little, but ride and walk out when the weather is pleasant, which has not been very often during the winter. I walk about my room, and keep up all day, except an hour each day. I have looked forward to warm weather for a favorable change in my condition.

4. My faith in the promises of the word of the Lord, and in the prayer of faith, is the same, and I most earnestly hope that the faithful, believing readers of this note will still continue to pray for my recovery to health.

5. I have no want of means, but at present must have rest from care and anxiety.

JAMES WHITE.
