    Dear Brother and Sister Burden,—

    I feel very grateful to the Lord that He has strengthened me to speak six times at this meeting. When I left my home in St. Helena, I was suffering from a severe cold, and I thought it rather a risk to run to attempt to attend the meeting. But I decided to start with the party, thinking that I would go as far as Los Angeles, and then, if I could not go any farther, I would return to St. Helena. The Lord strengthened me, and I have been able to bear my testimony six times since the meeting began. All seem surprised that my voice is so clear and strong. I have said many things that the Lord has given me to say, and I still have more to say. I attend only those meetings in which I can bear my testimony.20LtMs, Lt 143, 1905, par. 1

    I have been waiting to hear from you again regarding the place near Redlands, about which you wrote not long ago. I hope that this place can be secured, because I think that the Lord has made it possible for us to obtain it. If you have anything further to tell us, please do so. We do not want this place to be a snare to us; for I feel impressed that it will be a great blessing. I hope that you will send me a line when you have come to a decision regarding the place.20LtMs, Lt 143, 1905, par. 2

    Redlands and Riverside must be worked, and they could be worked from the place about which you have written us. If Brother and Sister Haskell can possibly get away from Nashville, I should like them to spend a little time in Southern California. They ought to spend the winter in a more even climate than that of Nashville.20LtMs, Lt 143, 1905, par. 3

    Our meetings are going on well, and we have every reason to be grateful to our heavenly Father. Dr. Kellogg came on the ground a few days ago. He spoke a few words in a council meeting, I think it was. Then he went to Philadelphia to attend to some business. His brother Will is still on the ground.20LtMs, Lt 143, 1905, par. 4

    The conference is a large and interesting one. I think the meeting will close next Tuesday or Wednesday. Willie thinks that we shall be obliged to remain here a week after that. I am anxious to get home. We are in haste to get Ministry of Healing on the market so that our sanitariums can have help.20LtMs, Lt 143, 1905, par. 5

    I cannot write any more today; for I am very tired, and my head will not work. I fall asleep while I am writing.20LtMs, Lt 143, 1905, par. 6

    With much love to your family and the others whom we know in the sanitarium.20LtMs, Lt 143, 1905, par. 7
