    Lt 394, 1906

    Haskell, S. N.

    St. Helena, California

    December 21, 1906

    Previously unpublished.

    Elder S. N. Haskell

    Dear Brother and Sister Haskell:

    I am glad that Elder Loughborough is in Southern California. I hope that in his labors he may be guided by the Lord, and not by feeble, erring men. It is not fitting that our aged brethren, who have had years of experience in the message, should be under control to those who are young and inexperienced. I would say to you and to elder Loughborough, Go forward, in the strength of God, and He will abundantly bless you.21LtMs, Lt 394, 1906, par. 1

    I hope that Elder Loughborough may bear his testimony in Los Angeles. In the name of the Lord, let him tell of the experience of the early days of the message. Our aged ministers are to be respected, and their testimony is of great value. The people need to be confirmed in the faith, by the experiences of the past and of the present.21LtMs, Lt 394, 1906, par. 2

    I trust that our brethren in Southern California will not carry the burden of the school at Fernando, to the neglect of other branches of the Lord’s work. Just as decided an effort should be put forth in behalf of our sanitariums and other schools as for the college at Fernando. Let wisdom and sound judgment be manifested in working for the health of the whole body.21LtMs, Lt 394, 1906, par. 3

    Last week I ventured to go to Oakland. I went down on Thursday afternoon, and the next day I was very sick. I had hardly strength sufficient to sit up. But Brother Simpson called to see me, and I had a long interview with him. On Sabbath morning Elder Simpson gave a clear, decided discourse on the subject of the Spirit of Prophecy. In the afternoon, the Lord greatly strengthened me, and I spoke to the people. Sunday morning I attended a baptismal service at the Piedmont Baths. This was a scene that angels of God witnessed with joy. Elder Simpson performed the ceremony. In a few weeks he will return to Oakland, and then there will be another baptism.21LtMs, Lt 394, 1906, par. 4
