Fannie Carroll's Testimony
c/o Mr. C. H. Richter
1603 Fairview Av
Spokane Washington U.S.A.
August 15, 1913
Dear Brother,
Having heard the “Wilson Case,” is soon to come off. I am sending you a few particulars re our work on this side; which may help you to refute the terrible charges this man has brought against us as the Lords servants. And, which has caused so much suffering during the last few years.
How glad we ought to be, however, to know that those whom he has so cruelly libeled in different parts of the world have no other desire than to honour and serve the Lord, and live pure, holy lives before God and men.
I was converted through Mr. Wm. Irvine in Rathmolyon, Co. Meath, Ireland in October, 1897. Spent some years in business with my brother in Dublin before going forth to preach the Gospel. My first field of labour being Suffolk, England. Miss A. Smith who is now in Tasmania was my co-worker. We held Evangelistic meetings in several of the Villages and Towns. Mr. Wilson’s five children and a number of others were converted as a result of our labours, who can testify of the blessing brought into their lives.
With some others I went to New Zealand in 1905 and returned to visit my friends in Dublin and elsewhere in 1910. And came over to this side of the Atlantic to join my brother and sister that same year. They are both Evangelists and engaged in this work.
The fact that we preach Jesus as the only Example and Pattern as well as the only Saviour and Lord and daily seek to deny ourselves and follow Him in the world ought to make it clear to all honest minds that our standard of morality is the only true standard for all who profess and call themselves christians.
I correspond regularly with my married brother and his wife in the old country, both of whom are in hearty sympathy with our work on this side. We have many christian friends and christian homes to which we are always welcome. Here are a few names and addresses to which any who are interested can refer.
Mr. & Mrs. Julias Richter, Chesaw, Wash.
Mr. & Mrs. J. Ostland, 1201 S. Monroe St., Tacoma, Wash.
Mr. & Mrs. J. Westin, 1219 Sth Wash St., Tacoma, Wash.
Mr. & Mrs. H. Sinclair, 2142 Venable St, Vancouver, B.C.
Of course you know we are quite free to go home to see our friends or leave the work any time we like, and that two sisters always work together. From every standpoint we have proved our methods of work and manner of life are conducive to a healthy life, physically, morally and spiritually and we have the joy of seeing many lives and homes transformed.
I trust the Case will be decided and settled definitely and that this man may be silenced for good. You have our best wishes and sympathy.
Yours sincerely in Christs service
