    Standing of the Publishing House in 1880

    In the Review of Jan. 15, 1880, Elder Butler says:—GSAM 294.5

    “Our publishing house (Battle Creek) has recently been enlarged by the erection of a central portion between the two eastern buildings, thus materially increasing the capacity and convenience of the whole. Facilities exist for electrotyping and stereotyping, and doing the best binding. In fact, it is stated by those who ought to know, that it is the most perfect and complete publishing house in the State of Michigan.”GSAM 294.6

    Notwithstanding this enlargement, it became necessary, before the close of the summer, to construct a new building south of the main building, for a press-room. To this room the five power-presses of the association were removed. One of these presses was of larger size than any heretofore used in the office. One of the same size and style had also just been placed in the office of the Signs of the Times, Oakland, Cal.GSAM 295.1

    In the Review of May 17, 1881, referring to the success of the publishing work at the central publishing house in Battle Creek, Elder White said:—GSAM 295.2

    “Take the amount of debts of the Seventh-day Adventist Publishing Association from a careful invoice of the property, and there is left in real and personal property not less than $105,000. Of this, all our people have given in shares, donations, and legacies, the sum of $34,432.17, and a few faithful men and women who have devoted their lives to the work, have added [not in donations, but by sacrifice and careful management] $70,567.83.”GSAM 295.3
