Dear Brother:

I send you the enclosed original manuscript. I have sent a calligraph copy to Dr. Burke. I thought all these things you might find occasion to use in traveling. Keep them with you, use them where you feel that it is essential. 6LtMs, Lt 52, 1890, par. 1

We must not let [E. P.] Daniels go among our churches awakening their sympathy by his misstatements and his representations of his financial needs. We must stop this kind of work, not only for E. P. Daniels’ own sake but for the sake of the precious flock of God. If any will follow him, it is because they are blindfolded. If the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. 6LtMs, Lt 52, 1890, par. 2

I feel that we need much grace and heavenly wisdom to know how to deal with human minds. I am sure that we shall need to pray much in the Spirit and with persevering prayer for the power and Spirit of God to work with our efforts. 6LtMs, Lt 52, 1890, par. 3

May the Lord rebuke the enemy and set free the captives bound by his cruel power is my prayer. 6LtMs, Lt 52, 1890, par. 4
