My DoaP Christian Frionds and Co-VJbrkor9:

I appreciate the fine spirit mani

fested by you dear Christian friends in supporting the work in Hav;aii

with your prayers and offerings.

May God bless you for it.

Lomburg has rendered a groat service to no and tho cause of missions.

I do appreciate her service so much. On my rotui^i to Hav/aii after

possible the teaching of the Gospel in all of its fulness to boys,
girls, youth and adults in this field, whore ospccially the young ones
