Dear brethren: 1 desire to express
my very great appreciation for tho
practical nnd substantial maniior In
which you have Indicated to mo your
sympathy and regard.
I had hoped o U In my pulpit
agnln last Sunday: hut Sunday morn
ing found mo too HI to do It.
Stnco thru I have boon cnmpollud'
to recognize tho threatening serious
ness of my condition.
I told to the advice of my physicians
and tho entreaties of my friends and
shall try conscientiously to comply
wit,h your request and their sugges
tions, "to take tlmo to rost."
It .distresses me, however, to think
that your attempt to pny my salary
stcus, nnd to hlsfnmlly in this their
hour of need, nnd in token of our
sympnthy wo urgently request our
nnd kcop up tho services of tho
church mny become a burden upon
you.
I desire, moro than nnythlng olso,
to bo well nnd strong again so that 1
mny take up my "labor of lovo" and
return to tho pastorate df tho doar
Medford church. I shall need groat
grace nnd holp to sny "Thy will bo
dono" If It should he otherwise.
My bunion Is lightened by the ns
suranco that you "suffer with mo,"
and 1 rhnlt foot during three months
of enforced vacation that I am not
alone nnd uncared for.
Pray that
I spiritual powor mny come to mo for
onlarged service.
I pray that thcro may ho no "lot
ting down" In tho work of tho church,
and nhnll confidently expect oach
member, old nnd young, to nssumo
his mensuro of responsibility,
Mny Ood bless each ono of you
for flits gracious and unsolflsh nttl
tudo which you havo taken.
Slncoroly and affcctlouatuly your
pastor,
