Dear Sir: —My brother some time ago gave me a book, named Elpis Israel, which has given me much pleasure to read. I can see plainly now the reason why there are so few who are Christians. I have been to meeting all my lifetime, and have not been able to discern the way said to be pointed out by the "spiritual guides." I see the way plainly now; and that there is but one in which "eternal life" can be obtained.
