DEAR BROTHER: Inclosed please find ten dollars for the relief of the schools. This has a history. In June, at the South Dakota camp-meeting, I made a contribution of ten dollars (just one tenth of my income), to relieve the schools. I had been sorely tried because our leaders had incurred the debt, as I think debts are wrong. We are instructed to “owe no man anything.” I helped nearly all our institutions to get started, and had used much self-denial to do so, and I felt discouraged; but when I saw that those who rebuilt Jerusalem were not to blame for its ruin, I felt it a privilege to help roll away this reproach. Well, then my trouble over the debt was past. I had done what I could, and was happy; but in November I received a box containing ten copies of “Christ’s Object Lessons.” I also received a letter, saying, “We send you the ten copies you paid for.” I was amazed—I had bought no books—not a word about books. I am seventy-seven years old, and too feeble to walk one block, let alone carrying a book. What to do I did not know; but I said, If I could sell those, I would send the money back again, so I spoke to all whom I saw, and friends sold the books, till I had $9.25, so I concluded to add the seventy-five cents, as I like round numbers, and send it to you, and see if it will stay. “In some way or other, the Lord will provide.” He will help us if we do our part; and if He wishes the books sold, we can sell them. I have one copy left, and shall send that by mail, as a present.
