Thankfulness for the Sabbath

From Sister Prior.

DEAR BRO. WHITE:—I cannot express how thankful I am to you for sending the Review, not knowing that you would ever receive anything for it. O, I do thank our kind Father, and dear Saviour, for their kindness to us, poor worms of the dust. O, how unworthy I am, that he should have thoughts of good concerning me; and make my heart glad with his Spirit's presence. I will praise the Lord for letting me see his Sabbath, and helping me to keep all his commandments. I feel lonely when Sabbath comes, but the hours are precious. I would not be deprived of them. I will not murmur, for I am not the only one that is alone.
I have good neighbors here, with whom I have conversed about the Sabbath, and I have not met with but two (and they say that they are satisfied with the one that they keep) but that will acknowledge that they have no authority for keeping Sunday, from the Bible.
I want to overcome every evil propensity, and every thing that is wrong. Pray for me. I want to have on the wedding garment when my Saviour comes.
Yours in hope, Scoville, Medina Co., O. L. PRIOR.
