My husband had taken hold of the book matter at Battle Creek, and a noble example had been set by that church. At the meeting at Fairplains he presented the matter of placing in the hands of all who were not able to purchase, such works as Spiritual Gifts, Appeal to Mothers, How to Live, Appeal to Youth, Sabbath Readings, and the charts, with Key of Explanation. The plan met with general approval. But of this important work I will speak in another place. {1T 666.2}

Min mand tog fat i bogvirksomheden i Battle Creek og den menighed fik sat et ædelt eksempel. Under mødet i Fairplains fremlagde han en plan for at gratis give værker til alle dem, som ikke var i stand til at købe dem. Det drejede sig om værker som Åndelige Gaver, Appel til Mødre, Hvordan man lever, Appel til de Unge, Sabbats læsninger og kortene, med Forklaringsnøgle. Planen blev godt modtaget. Men dette betydningsfulde emne vil jeg tale om, et andet sted.
