Today on my arrival at this place,
I received your most welcome and
interesting letter of the 13th of October,
which had been forwarded from Gisborn
to me. I am not able to discribe the
joy it afforded me in reading the contents
of the same, to hear direct from the leaders
of Gods' Kingdom upon the Earth, in
relation to the interest and progress of the
same, and of the welfare of Gods insp-
ired serveants in these trying and per-
ilous times, what a time of rejoiceing
it must have been to you, as also to the
Saints, to have you with them at the late
Confrence, if only for one meeting, after such,
a long time of seclusion, we were indeed
sorry to learn that you had been so unwell
