E. G. White References To The Salamanca Vision
- 6. 1The first five of these instances are quoted in the previous section with the 1890 diary entries Battle Creek, Michigan, January 9, 1891
- 7. Date and Place of Writing Not Known 2This entry appears in Mrs. White’s diary under the date of November 3, 1890. However, from internal evidence it appears that the lines quoted here were probably written some weeks or even months later. The phrase “The season of the year was unfavorable” points back to a substantially earlier period. It appears that Ellen White wrote everything on p. 288 of her diary as well as the first four lines of p. 289 on November 3. Some time later she filled out the…
- 8. Battle Creek, Michigan, 3This account seems to be introduced with the words, “Nov. 21 During the night season” (Diary, p. 321). Ellen White was in Brooklyn, New York, on November 21. But part of the account, at least, was written in Battle Creek, Michigan, for she speaks of “the facilities here in Battle Creek” (Diary, p. 323). Judging from the color of ink in the diary, it appears that after she wrote, “Nov. 21 During the night season,” Ellen White left the rest of that page as well as the f…
- 9. Battle Creek, Michigan (?), Early 1891 (?) 4This entry is preceded by the words “A letter written from Salamanca, Nov. 3, 1890” (Diary, p. 450). However, since it follows the entry for Dec. 31, 1890 (Diary, pp. 447-449), it probably was written after that date. The words “A letter written from” appear to have been added at a later date when it may actually have slipped Ellen White’s mind as to exactly where she was when she penned these lines. The Nov. 3 date doubtless refers to the subject u…
- 10. Battle Creek, Michigan, March, 1891 5These words from p. 510 of the 1890 diary may have been written early Sunday morning, March 8, 1891.. The General Conference session convened on March 5 and continued for three weeks
- 11. Battle Creek, Michigan, Wednesday, March 11, 7The date given in the diary is not clear. See facsimile of Diary 17, p. 111, in Section V 1891
- 12. Healdsburg, California (?), October, 1891 (?) Letter to Dr. W. P. Burke at the St. Helena Health Retreat
- 13. Battle Creek, Michigan, 1892 11The 14-page pamphlet, “Danger in Adopting Worldly Policy in the Work of God,” was drawn primarily from Diary 16, pp. 450-517. Published first in 1892, it is now largely reproduced in Life Sketches, 319-330, as well as in Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel Workers, 460-471. The first two pages only of the 1892 pamphlet are shown here
