    Lt 17, 1874

    White, W. C.

    Santa Rosa, California

    March 20, 1874

    Portions of this letter are published in 2Bio 406-407.

    Dear Son Clarence:

    I have been seeking an opportunity to write you for some days, but Father has been sick and a pressure of cares has hindered. Father has been sick for several days with a bilious attack. Father talks sometimes of going to Colorado mountains. He thinks that Johnny and you would like to come out and spend a few months. What do you think of this?2LtMs, Lt 17, 1874, par. 1

    We received a letter from Mrs. Lashey [?]. They have moved to Bear Creek, on their father’s place.2LtMs, Lt 17, 1874, par. 2

    Sometimes Father talks of going to our place in Iowa, having Nathan get a house and move in, and we make that our home and have you and Johnny come and spend some months with us. What do you think of this proposition? Sometimes Father talks of taking treatments at the Institute at Battle Creek. What do you think of this?2LtMs, Lt 17, 1874, par. 3

    I want very much to go to the camp meetings the coming season. Oh, how unreconciled I feel to be doing nothing of any account, when I know I have a testimony for the people! I long to be at work and say or do something that will advance the cause of God.2LtMs, Lt 17, 1874, par. 4

    Tell us what you would like. It is just before the Sabbath and I must close.2LtMs, Lt 17, 1874, par. 5

    In haste and love,2LtMs, Lt 17, 1874, par. 6

    Mother.

    P.S. I think Father ought to be where he can work out of doors and occupy his mind. Your father would not advise you to study algebra while you have so many other studies. Why not study chemistry? Use the four hundred dollars, or any part of it, for apparatus needed in the school.2LtMs, Lt 17, 1874, par. 7

    Your Mother.2LtMs, Lt 17, 1874, par. 8
