Dear sister White,

I received your letter a few days ago but was for the first time except when on board of a Ship sick a bed, or at least that is what the people said. I was not dressed for a number of days. At the same time that I received yours I received from Brother Butler a copy of the one that you sent to Brother Jones and Waggoner. That one I read first and it did me so much good that in a short time I got up and dressed myself. The good derived was not so much because it agreed with my view on the law question for I do not know whether your light is in harmony with the ideas I have had or not. I do not know as I agree with either Waggoner or Brother Butler but had rather sided in with Waggoner on some points but not on others. And it was the same with Brother Butler. But that which did me so much good was the principles that you brought out on this question and other matters also. Because of a lack of these principles as it looked to me I felt the greatest discouragement of any one thing for a long time. MMM 73.1
