    Sara McEnterfer to Mrs. C. W. Harmon, August 2, 1914

    Your letter of June 28, to Mrs. E. G. White, was mislaid, and I am sorry to say, has not had a reply, so far as I know, until now. I will try to answer your questions the best that I can. For several months Mrs. White has not been able, on account of ill-health, to attend to very much correspondence. She is still quite poorly, therefore I am answering your letter for her.FBS 107.2

    I was privileged to be with Mrs. White, during all the time that Miss Bolton was with her, with the exception of a short time during the first part of her stay in Australia. Miss Bolton failed in health, and had to discontinue her work, and afterward, I understand, she had to be taken to an asylum. I am unable to give you further particulars, but if I remember correctly, I think she is still in an asylum. I may, however, be mistaken. I hope I am. I cannot at present, even tell you in what part of the country she is. During the first part of her stay with us, her mind seemed all right. Then on account of sickness, I was separated from the family for a few years, because of trouble with my eye. When I joined them again, I noticed that Miss Bolton was not her natural self, and she gradually grew worse until it was thought best to advise her to go to a sanitarium, and have treatment, that she might regain her health. This she did; and for a short time she seemed to be improving. Finally her mind gave way to such an extent that she had to be sent to an asylum. Mrs. White had no part in any of the arrangements, excepting to advise Miss Bolton to take a rest, and have some treatments at the Sanitarium in Battle Creek, where she might regain health.FBS 107.3

    Trusting that these few lines will reach you in due season, I am, Yours respectfully, Sara McEnterfer.FBS 108.1
