Dear Brother and Sister Nicola:

I have just been made aware that the enclosed letter to you did not go as soon as I had supposed it could be sent. Several things requiring immediate attention have crowded in. We have had some council meetings over the publishing work at Mountain View and elsewhere; and we have had to answer many letters from correspondents in Australia. All this has made it difficult for me to keep track of the letters I have been writing to friends in this country. The Australian mail must be prepared, if possible, in time for the next boat.21LtMs, Lt 180, 1906, par. 1

During the past few weeks, I have not had much rest in spirit. Letters, full of questions, are continually crowding in upon us. At this season of the year, there is necessity for my remaining as quiet as possible; but I cannot rest. My soul is drawn out for those who are in peril, in the hope that they may not be misled by the representations that have been going forth from Battle Creek. If I can present to the people the facts in the case, as they exist, it may save some from making shipwrecks of faith. I have been sent some of the most frivolous questions in regard to the testimonies given me by the Lord.21LtMs, Lt 180, 1906, par. 2

But this letter must be gotten off in the mail that is just closing. Be of good courage; exercise faith in God and in His Son, Jesus. God will vindicate our past experience.21LtMs, Lt 180, 1906, par. 3
