TESTIMONIAL.

On reading Bro. White's cause of discouragement in the Good Samaritan, No. 6, I felt like saying that I do most heartily sympathize with him and his dear companion in the conflicting and sore trials which they have been called to bear.

Since my first acquaintance with them in the early part of 1845, I have known something of their heavy and responsible burdens. The candid, free, and honest course which they have pursued in bearing forward this last great truth of God with all its responsibilities, reflects a degree of honor on their moral and christian characters which time cannot easily efface. For one, I highly respect them for their work's sake, and love them as christians for Christ's sake. The remnant people of God are deeply indebted to them for their labors of love, and I do hope they, with myself, and mine will in all coming time most cheerfully engage to share with them in all the responsibilities and trials which we as a people may be called to meet. O Lord, encourage and stay up the hands of Bro. and Sr. W., is my prayer. JOSEPH BATES.

NOTE TO BRO. AND SISTER WHITE.

We will try to get our house ready for a conference in Avon, Rock Co., Wis., about the last of April or first of May, as you return from Iowa. If you come from the west, we will meet you at the R. R. depot at Durand; if from the north, or east, we will meet you at Brodhead, about fourteen miles east of Monroe. You will please let us know in time when and at what place we shall meet you.

Yours truly, J. G. WOOD. Spring Grove, Wis.
