JOHN S. MATHEWS

From Bro. Mathews.

DEAR BRO. WHITE:—It is with much pleasure that I hear through the Review from our dear brethren; and to hear that they are trying to keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. I feel to rejoice in God for his goodness to me, in showing me the light of his Holy Sabbath, that has been so long trodden under foot; but praise the Lord the breach is being repaired. Myself, my wife and two children are striving to keep the commandments.—When I can hear or read God’s holy truth, it is more than my meat and drink.
I know that I have been led into darkness by talking over little trials that have existed in our band; but I now mean by the grace of God to let such things alone, and be looking and preparing for Christ’s soon coming.
Yours in hope of that glorious kingdom.

JOHN S. MATHEWS
