    Evangelism in Nearby Communities

    But first there were the interests nearer their Denison home. The cold weather now past, on weekends they held meetings in nearby communities. On Thursday, February 13, they were off for Dallas, seventy-five miles by carriage. As James White wrote of this to Willie, he described one missionary facet of the trip:3BIO 106.5

    Brother [Arthur] Daniells takes my carriage with trunk and [plans] to sell and canvass in cities and villages by the way. He will take a fine pair of mules for which I paid $180.... We shall be gone about a week.—JW to WCW, February 12, 1879.3BIO 106.6

    The 21-year-old Arthur G. Daniells was in Texas at his own expense, assisting R. M. Kilgore in his tent evangelism. He had been lent to James White to assist him as a secretary. Daniells’ wife, Mary, was brought into the White home in Denison as cook. Thus began a longstanding acquaintance between the president of the General Conference, the messenger of the Lord, and a young man who in time would himself serve as leader of the church for twenty-one years.3BIO 106.7
