Letter from a Veteran.

By Jonathan Chase

DEAR BRETHREN AND SISTERS IN CHRIST: In feeble health and with trembling hand I write. I have been sick now nearly two months with neuralgia, rheumatism, and old age. I am a little over eighty. My wife and self are alone here. There are none of like precious faith within twelve miles of us. We would like, if there should be any of our brethren passing through this section, to have them give us a call, and they will receive our thanks. We cannot get out far from home to attend meetings; we are too old; but, thank the Lord, we have two weekly messengers, the REVIEW and the Signs. The REVIEW I have taken twenty-three years, and I want its weekly visits while I live. I thank God for the privilege of reading its pages. It does not wear out; it is ever new; and why not? It is God's truth and will stand forever. Let us ever be found keeping all the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. If we are found so doing we shall have right to the tree of life. May it be our happy lot.
Yours in love of the truth, JONATHAN CHASE.
