fer going to Samoa than to
Europe, for I am satisfied that
missionaries meet with many
hardships and obstacles in Germany
not met with in Samoa, and which
will require prayer and humility
to overcome and defeat, yet with
God's blessing I prefer that mis-

will explain more clearly probably
my reason for desireing a change

Sorry for troubling you
