    Lt 192, 1907

    Caro, E. R.

    St. Helena, California

    June 12, 1907

    Previously unpublished.

    Dr. E. R. Caro

    Dear Brother:

    Your letters are received, and we are relieved of a great anxiety concerning you. Your mother and your wife have been intensely anxious to know where you were. Your explanation is sufficient.22LtMs, Lt 192, 1907, par. 1

    I had a small house of four rooms. We placed your family in this, and let them have a limited supply of furniture, until we could understand what move to make next. We have loaned them money, and they have shared with us the product of the place. We have a nice cow, and they shared this advantage also. We live upon plain, simple food—fruits and grains.22LtMs, Lt 192, 1907, par. 2

    Your wife’s home is close by our own house. Your children have a yard in which they can play and exercise, and they seem very happy. They are not exposed to the evils of the street; for we are on rising ground far away from the streets.22LtMs, Lt 192, 1907, par. 3

    Your mother has had the care of nursing two confinement cases in the neighborhood, for which she has received moderate pay. Your family has not suffered for temporal necessities. You have been their great anxiety—to know your whereabouts and your welfare. I gave your mother the small letter containing the ten dollars. W. C. White took it to her. After reading the lengthy communication to me, W. C. sealed it up, and I have placed it where no other person can know of its contents. I am more sorry than I can express to you for the suffering you have passed through.22LtMs, Lt 192, 1907, par. 4

    Your mother believes that your wife is a truly converted woman. She keeps strictly at home, and nothing can draw her away. She is a faithful mother to her children. I have evidence that she is converted, and I am desirous that you and your wife shall meet and become reconciled.22LtMs, Lt 192, 1907, par. 5

    I had a letter written to you months ago, inviting you to come to our place, and we would help you to get well. We can give you plain, wholesome food and opportunity for exercise. We are picking our loganberries now. We have a very pleasant place, and we welcome you to our home and pray that the blessing of the Lord may be upon you. I think you have been doing the best thing you could do in working with your hands. We have hope that as you recover, you will be able to unite with some one of our sanitariums. But of this we will talk when we see you. We say to you now, Come right to our home; it is a pleasant place, away from the noise and bustle of the city.22LtMs, Lt 192, 1907, par. 6

    If you need treatment, the sanitarium is just upon the hillside close by. There you can have every advantage until you are fully recovered. We welcome you heartily. The children and their mother will also be glad to see you. Come at once, if you are able. I will do all in my power to give you every advantage to recover your health.22LtMs, Lt 192, 1907, par. 7

    When you are stronger, you can unite with one of our sanitariums; but now the question with you is to get well, so that you can begin anew. Come as soon as possible. In the past, under the influence of the Spirit of God, you have had success as a minister of the truth. We will do our utmost to place you on your feet again, that you may enter upon some duties where you can be a help and a blessing.22LtMs, Lt 192, 1907, par. 8

    In much sympathy and love.22LtMs, Lt 192, 1907, par. 9
