Dear Brother Washburn:-
Received your
letter yesterday, and glad to learn you are at home once more, and I
hope that you had a pleasant time during your stay at Takoma Park.
Am enclosing with
this copy of that article, rather interview I had with Sister White. I
should say this to you about that interview. Please remember, that
Sister White did not write this. She started to tell me some things. I
recognized at once that what she had to say was important. The way she
began to speak. So I got a pencil and put down what she said. Then as
soon as I was able, after she finished telling me, I transposed what she
said, that I had written on the paper while she was talking, on to a
typewriter, and the enclosed is the result. Sister McEnterfer her
secretary and nurse and traveling companion was present, I feel certain
when we had the interview.
I felt it was
necessary for me to give you this explanation, so in case you should
have occasion to say anything to any one about it, you would have the
matter straight, and no one, neither you nor I, would have any
misinformed come back.
I do not know of
but two other persons but you and I who have this document. So I thought
it might be well for you to know this.
Always glad to
hear from you. May be some time I can send you an article or two that
might be of interest to you.
Sincerely your brother in Christ,
