A RESPONSE.

By JOS. CLARKE

I EXPRESS my thanks to Bro. White, for his kind words of caution, expressed in No. 16 of the REVIEW, those which refer to language used by me, which was, indeed, as he has said, manifestly improper.

I also would express my regret that I have, in quite a number of cases, written to the Office hastily, upon subjects about which I was not wholly informed, and have erred, and have sometimes caused trial and needless pain to others whom I greatly respect and love.

I would ask pardon of all whom I have thus hurt and wounded, and would also tender my hearty thanks to the editor of the REVIEW for his care in often withholding or correcting my faulty articles.

I have been much benefited by the care and good offices of my brethren. Will they still continue their kindness and care for my spiritual welfare, and for my good in all things? and may the Lord pardon my negligence and erratic steps, and help me to walk humbly and wisely before him in all things.

JOS. CLARKE.
