    Lt 244, 1905

    White, W. C.

    Glendale, California

    September 8, 1905

    Previously unpublished.

    Dear Son Willie,—

    Brother Ballenger came from Los Angeles to see me early this morning. He presented before me that in a council meeting several were present and talked over the matter of having camp-meeting in San Diego in three weeks. After they consulted together they decided that if it would suit my mind they would have the camp-meeting at San Diego deferred until November. Then Elder Simpson would commence his meetings in San Diego and hold them until the camp-meeting, which was the best thing to do. I agreed with him, and Brother Burden is of the same opinion. Then the Paradise Valley Sanitarium will be completed to dedicate, and Loma Linda will be settled and can have a meeting there and dedicate the buildings.20LtMs, Lt 244, 1905, par. 1

    My talk with Brother Burden was very important. He said if we could only get Doctor Holden it would be the most complete thing that could be done, and that he has had this on his mind for some time. He says he would feel that we were fitted well if we could get Brother Holden to come to Loma Linda, that he is fully abreast of Dr. Kellogg in surgery. He has just built him a nice house, and I do not know as he will consent to come. He feels deeply hurt, I understand, the way Brother Simmons has treated him; but the Lord may open the way so that he can sell his building.20LtMs, Lt 244, 1905, par. 2

    Brother Burden is of good courage, and he and his wife and I are of the same opinion—that a school will be opened in Loma Linda. And she is being urged to take the school, and Brother Holden can have a class of young men, fitting them for developed workmen. Brother Burden feels anxious this should be done.20LtMs, Lt 244, 1905, par. 3

    We shall leave here Sunday at five o’clock, take the cars just two miles from here, and not leave them till we get to Oakland. I think Sister Peck will go to Loma Linda and come on Monday or Tuesday. I shall be glad to be home again, and Henry Kellogg said he wanted to bring his wife to visit us in St. Helena. She will have time to do this, and he will take her to Loma Linda on a trip with him. I told him to come to our house and we could entertain them nicely.20LtMs, Lt 244, 1905, par. 4

    I am getting a little better and shall try to speak once in forenoon, and the Lord will sustain me, I think. Yes, I believe He will. Now I am anxious to see you all, and I thank the Lord Dores is better. I have not slept since half-past 3 o’clock. Have written 11 to 15 pages.20LtMs, Lt 244, 1905, par. 5
