July 30 - 1905.
Dear Friend
I have been requested to ask five friends to join us
in prayer that God will bless the Missionaries
in their work, and
raise up young men and women to go forth
with the glad tidings
to those who have never heard.
Please write
coppies of this letter to five friends, without delay,
giving to each the number next to this.
Send each to one you know
will fulfill the conditions. Pray that
the chain may not be broken.
If you cannot comply, notify us that
the chain is broken.
Yours in the Masters
