ANDREW ANDERSON

By Andrew Anderson

A Swedish brother writes as follows, from Neosho Co., Kansas, Jan. 10, 1875, to the Advent Herald. Bro. Sawyer, at our request, translates it for the REVIEW. Thus evidence is coming in from every quarter of the good work the papers are doing, not only in English, but in foreign tongues:—

I had an opportunity to read your paper last spring, and the conclusion was that I must, contrary to my former customs and feelings, keep the Lord’s Sabbath, the day which was instituted at creation.

We have a number of papers (Harolds) and read them with joy. It is my wish to have the paper for the year. I frankly acknowledge that there are no resources whereby I can obtain money. It makes me feel burdened and sorrowful to come and beg in this way; but if I have any success, I will send the money afterward.

We have lived here five years, and have not obtained much of anything to live upon. We are in a large settlement of Swedes. Many read the paper with pleasure; and again others dislike it. It does not come in vain. It will do what the Lord has designed it shall. It is sent out by and from him.
