Dear Sister Irwin,—

I am sorry that I can write you but a short note by this mail, but I will send you copies of letters written to others and ask you to excuse me for not writing more to you personally. 18LtMs, Lt 118, 1903, par. 1

Be of good courage in the Lord. I am anxious that every one shall be filled with zeal, and in the love and grace of Christ be strong in striving for the crown that will be given to the overcomer. 18LtMs, Lt 118, 1903, par. 2

The mail closes soon, and I will not have time to write more, but I ask you all to pray for me. I need your prayers. I am striving with all the powers that God has given me to hold aloft the banner, bearing the inscription for this time, “Here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.” Revelation 14:12. 18LtMs, Lt 118, 1903, par. 3
