BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTSAs Written:MASS., Feb. 25th 1893
Our beloved Teacher:

He would be a poor general who did not issue his orders, and place his men, to meet the tactics As Written: tatics of the enemy. And he would be a worse than useless subaltern who did not promptly obey those orders though they changed an hundred times a day.

We either have a God-given As Written: Godgiven Leader, or we have none. This is the issue. We must meet it.

When I enlisted in this Army, I enlisted to obey orders. We are under divine orders, and you are their interpreter. I have but to discern your wish to know what my orders are.

Mrs Hanna joins me in deepest love,

Yours in Christ, Truth.
S. J. Hanna
