Dear Brother
With today's mail I send enclosed 90 francs the remaining four francs, I will send as soon as I can.
Perhaps I will be sending for more books and then I can make it right. Trust this much will be satisfactory at present.
You understand English Bro. Naegle, and my German is not very good also I would enjoy writing German. (But I must differ for it was good G.C.N.)
At present, I am, and for a month have been studying Arabic almost exclusively, find it a very difficult language, still I am over the worst of it now; have begun to speak a little have distributed quite a good many tracts.
There is much Labor to be performed here, but at present not much remuneration only so far as doing our duty brings satisfaction and contentment.
Present my kind regards to Bro. Marsern and wife, the same to yourself and wife,
Very Respectfully Yours in the Gospel of Christ
J.A. Clark
