    Brethren in the Ministry

    Battle Creek, Michigan

    September 17, 1890

    This letter is published in entirety in 1888 706-707.

    Dear Brethren in the Ministry Who shall Assemble in Camp Meeting in Oakland:

    I am deeply interested in the cause of God and greatly desire its success upon the Pacific Coast. Since our return from Europe, there has been a state of things existing in California, as well as east of the Rocky Mountains, that has made my work fifty times harder than it otherwise would have been.

I seemed to live as in clear light of the Sun of Righteousness, but the spirit that prevailed at that meeting was not the Spirit of God. I had to bear a decided testimony against the spirit that prevailed, and since that time the Lord wrought in every meeting we attended, but my testimony was treated with indifference as idle tales. I was charged with being influenced by my son W. C. White, Elder A. T. Jones, [and] E. J. Waggoner. Just as soon as my brethren express such thoughts they reveal ... [Remainder missing.]6LtMs, Lt 67, 1890, par. 3
