Personal Notices and Book Fund Appeal
We would be glad to hear from Bro. Thomas McKee by letter, or receive a visit from him at our new home in Battle Creek. This brother spent several weeks with us, at Montcalm Co., last spring, and did a very nice job of painting and graining upon our house at Greenville, at very reduced prices. We feel an interest in this brother. J. & E. G. WHITE. We have received from Bro. and Sr. Pennock, of the Allegan, Mich., church, a box of canned fruit, charges paid. Many thanks to the donors. It comes in a good time. Our constant labors, most of the time out of the State, have prevented us from making provisions in the line of fruit. Like favors from others who have fruit, canned or dried, will be gratefully received. J. & E. G. WHITE. We reached home again, weary and worn from constant labor, and found sixty sealed letters, besides many matters to attend to which came to the Office directed to others. We are giving our friends abroad all the attention we possibly can. To do this, we refuse, for the present, the visits of our friends in Battle Creek. Our friends will please excuse delays in giving their matters attention. J. & E. G. WHITE. Those who have pledged money to assist me in the circulation of certain books, may forward it to Eld. James White, Battle Creek, Mich., at their first convenience. I shall soon issue a report respecting the fund, in which will appear the names of all who have pledged. Those who have not paid, and wish to see their pledges marked paid, will have to pay up soon. During the last year, I have trusted brethren with several hundred dollars worth of books. I shall be glad to receive pay at any time—the sooner the better. Address Eld. James White, Battle Creek, Mich. We would say to those interested in the school at Battle Creek, that means for erecting a school building will not be needed till spring. Please send your pledges, not your means, at present. J. W. In our travels the past year we have left furs, hymn book, and many other articles, we know not where. Those who have these things, will do us a favor to report to us at Battle Creek. J. W.
