At home busily writing as year began, though much worn from her labors in So. Calif. as 1907 closed. Spoke twice during Union Conf. session in San Chapel in Jan. Received and counseled visitors; rode out when able. Spent ten days in Oakland during Bible Institute, and spoke six times (in March). Visited Lake County a few days in April. Spoke several times at Lodi camp meeting, May 1-10, and returned home ill with cold, and weary. Feeling the pressure of much writing, and that she must spend more time out-of-doors. Spoke six times at camp meeting in Melrose, Oakland, in early June “with as great clearness and power as in early times.”RY 209.1

Visited Paradise Valley San. Aug. 24-27, then labored at Loma Linda, then labored at Loma Linda, and returned home in early Sept., after nearly five weeks’ absence. Apparently stopped in Oakland over Sabbath on return trip.

All felt presence of Holy Spirit, and following this meeting her health improved and courage was renewed.RY 209.2
During November made weekend trips to Sebastopol, Healdsburg, and Berkeley, and was strengthened to speak. The “strange work” of Bro. and Sr. Mackin had to be met at this time. Study was being given to the removal of the college from Healdsburg to a more desirable location, and Buena Vista property was under consideration. E.G.W. joined in study of this problem.RY 210.1
