My Dear Friends, Beloved Saints!

Although unacquainted yet as your sympathizing Friends and Brother in a foreign land to whom your departed dear and beloved Son, had written several letters and had some business with this office. I take this opportunity of submitting the following and trust you will pardon me in not being more prompt in forwarding you a copy of a German letter I rec'd from Palestine, which I have had translated and enclose the same. Also thinking it might interest you will state I rec'd a very nice letter written throughout in German, dated Nov. 14, 94 at Haifa, with an order for German books, Pamphlets and tracts, $5 enclosed to apply on the load and means that we advanced him and Brother Robinson and on the 13th of Jan. I rec'd the following card date------Haifa, Palestine. Jan. 11-1895.

Dear Brother:

Your letter and card were both rec'd an in expectation of sending what I owe at Berne Office have neglected to write concerning my address which is Haifa, Palestine German Colony. Please send the books and the D & Cov. I can make good use of and appreciate your thoughtful kindness. You can look for the money I owe, but cannot send it tonight; as the business hours are closed here. 

With kind regards to all I remain Your Brother
