    CHAPTER 7 EARLY HEALTH LITERATURE

    THE PRINCIPLES relating to health reform constituted only a portion of the vision given to Mrs. White on June 6, 1863. As already stated, she wrote out at once the instruction given for her husband and herself, pointing out where they had transgressed some of the laws of life and were suffering physically in consequence. Several personal testimonies written shortly thereafter, and inspired by that vision, are on file among Mrs. White’s handwritten letters. In Testimonies for the Church, No. 10 (now Vol. I, pp. 390-395), published about six months later, are chapters containing instruction given at the same time.SHM 86.1

    During the latter part of that year Mrs. White’s life was crowded with literary activity. She was endeavoring to complete the third and fourth volumes of Spiritual Gifts. At Battle Creek, Michigan, the headquarters of the work, there were many demands upon her time and energies, and she longed for a place of quiet where she could write without constant interruptions. In August the White family left their home for a visit among churches in the eastern states, and plans were laid for retirement during the winter months in order that Mrs. White might give herself whole-heartedly to her literary work.SHM 86.2
