If Brother B had wanted to view things correctly and had felt the possibility of being deceived, he would have come to Brother and Sister White with the reports injurious to their reputation and would have given them an opportunity to speak for themselves. The reports which he brought away across the plains to the Pacific Coast bear false witness, thus breaking the law of God. He will one day meet the hard speeches, as well as the deceptive sophistry instigated by Satan, which he has instilled into minds to injure the influence of my husband and myself. This matter lies not between Brother B and me, but between him and God. {3T 443.1}

Hvis bror B havde ønsket at se tingene korrekt og havde mærket muligheden for at være bedraget, ville han have kommet til bror og søster White med det, som kan skade deres omdømme og så kunne de få en anledning til at forsvare sig. De rapporter som han tog med sig over markerne til Stillehavskysten bærer falske vidnesbyrd, derved bryder han Guds lov. Han vil en dag få de hårde taler tilbage, såvel som det bedrageriske sofisteri som Satan har ansporet, som han har sat i mennesker til skade for min mand og jeg selv. Sagen ligger ikke imellem bror B og mig, men mellem ham og Gud.
