EDWIN A. FREEMAN

From Bro. & Sr. Freeman.

Brother White:—Though personally unknown, I have long felt a desire to pen a few lines to you. It is about ten months since myself and husband commenced keeping the Sabbath of the fourth commandment. We have never heard a course of lectures, and the most information we have gained has been through tracts and the Review. Bro. Phelps called on us last Winter and presented the third angel's message which we embraced, and have since that time felt that it is a glorious cause. We are alone, excepting an uncle about six miles from us, in keeping the Rest-day of Jehovah, and meet with much opposition. Some think the seventh day looks too much like the Jews of olden times. I have thought that if Christ was to appear again as he did at his first advent, he would look too much like a Jew to be their Saviour. But I feel to praise God that I have been brought to the light of the true Sabbath, and hope I may ever be found with the commandment-keepers, having the testimony of Jesus Christ. I have taken much comfort in perusing letters in the Review from those of like precious faith, and feel unworthy a place with them.
