A Letter from an Old Pioneer
By J. F. Carman
POTTERVILLE, MICH., May 4, 1902. Prof. P. T. Magan,
Berrien Springs, Mich. Dear Brother: Yours of April 30 is received. Feeling anxious to see the good cause go on after I returned from the conference at Chicago, I gave fifty dollars for “Christ’s Object Lessons.” After reading your letter to the few brethren and sisters here last Sabbath, I told them that I would furnish them the books if they would give me the money received from their sale to send to you for the Material Fund. They have agreed to do so as far as they can, so I will inclose twenty dollars to you out of my own money, and will wait on them until they sell the books. You may not get all of the fifty dollars, but I will send you all we get out of the books. Give credit to the Potterville church, not to me. Hoping this will be satisfactory, I am,
Your brother in the good work,
J. F. Carman.
