Ten handwritten letters (15 p.) written from two gold mining areas in California, Gold Hill and Bart Mill. Most are addressed to "Dear Mort" from J.H. Beeman and his likely spouse, Hattie.

Miracles in My Life
Author: John Norton LoughboroughPublisher: TEACH Services, Inc.
ISBN: 1479602906
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
In 1853, at twenty-one years of age, John N. Loughborough began working with James and Ellen White preaching the gospel of Christ and sharing the three angels' messages with all who would listen. From that time until his death in 1924, Loughborough was a faithful witness and dedicated minister of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. During his ministry, Loughborough experienced many trials and miracles. From battling blizzards in the Midwest to being threatened by a knife-wielding man in California, he relied on God for protection as he preached to overflow crowds and converted hundreds of people. Miracles in My Life is a first-person account of the providential and faith-building experiences Loughborough had while working as an evangelist and traveling with James and Ellen White. The unique stories he shares will inspire confidence in the gift of prophecy and God's leading in the early Advent movement and in the life of His servants.
