le so that my heart and soul may obtain joy
and fragrance through the remembrance of the friends. Continually this
wanderer supplicates and entreats at the threshold of His Holiness the One
and begs assistance, bounty and heavenly confirmations in behalf of the
believers. You are always in my thoughts. You are not nor shall you ever
be forgotten. I hope by the favor of His Holiness the Almighty that day by
day you may add to your faith, assurance, firmness and steadfastness, and
become instruments for the promotion of the holy fragrances.

3 Although in the states of Illinois, Wisconsin, Ohio, Michigan and
Minnesota--praise be to God--believers are found who are associating with
each other in the utmost firmness and steadfastness--day and night they

who are severed from all else save God, sanctified and pure. If these
teachers be in the utmost state of attraction, in a short time great
results will be forthcoming. The sons and daughters of the kingdom are
like unto the real farmers. Through whichever state or country they pass
they display self-sacrifice and sow divine seeds. From that seed harvests
are produced. On this subject it is revealed in the glorious Gospel: When
the pure seeds are scattered in the good ground heavenly blessing and
benediction is obtained.(6) I hope that you may become assist
