To the Church.

Dear Brethren:—We stated to you, as published in REVIEW for Dec. 4th, that "the sums to be raised by donations to defray the expenses of moving the Office, and fitting up for business, and to pay Bro. White for material which he has added to the Office, are about $600." You see by the report of the "Committee of Investigation" that there is due Bro. White for printing material, $311,89.
The whole cost of packing and boxing press, type, &c., &c., cartage and freight, and for fitting up the Office ready for business here, amounts to $291,75. The whole amount, therefore, to be raised by the Church, is $603,64.
As yet we have received only about $50. We hope that every Church, and every brother, will at once take this matter into consideration, and send in their free-will offerings to the Office without delay, as the money is very much needed.
