Dear Sister Scriver:

You spoke to me a year ago of means which you would soon have to help the cause of God where it is most needed. I told my son to encourage you to help the Loma Linda Sanitarium by a loan. Now I will tell you of my own desire to hire some money for the prosecution of my work. I am in great need of means at the present time in order to hasten the work of getting my books before the people; and if you would help me in this work, I believe it would be well pleasing to God. I have several workers engaged with W. C. White in preparing these books for the press. 23LtMs, Lt 178, 1908, par. 1

The latest demand upon me is for Great Controversy to be translated and published in Spanish. I ask you to help me, that I may accomplish the work that the Lord has represented to me should be done. I pray that the Spirit of the Lord may impress your mind to let me have means for the advancement of the work. 23LtMs, Lt 178, 1908, par. 2

I am enclosing with this a copy of an appeal to our ministers for deeper consecration; in a few days I will mail you another manuscript relating to our duty to circulate our publications. 23LtMs, Lt 178, 1908, par. 3
