From Sister Hatch.

BRO. SMITH: It is cheering to read the testimonies from other parts, and to know there are so many striving to do the will of God, and seeking for eternal life. I can truly say that I love the Lord and his people, and am striving to keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus, that I may be accounted worthy of acceptance when our blessed Saviour comes to make up his jewels. This is worth striving for. Let us be zealous in this cause and work while the day lasts. We know not how soon it will close, and we be called to stand before the Judge of all the earth. It has been almost two years since brethren Van Horn and Canright came here to proclaim the last warning message to us, and I do rejoice that I had a heart to receive it. My dear companion is firm in the truth. What a blessing to have our companions go along with us, and help us to bear the trials and afflictions of this life, and what a consolation to bow together around the family altar, and send up our united petitions to our heavenly Father!
In hope of life.
