« E-1 † Thank you, and you may be seated. It's a privilege to be here tonight in this fine audience of people at--at this--at Edmonton Exhibition Gardens. And we're trusting the exceedingly abundantly tonight in the Presence of the Lord.
It's been a delightful eight days of service with you fine Canadian people. I shall never forget you. And it was little that I knew that just exactly eight years ago this week, or ten years ago this week, I was here my last time in this same place.
I want to take this time to thank the cooperating ministers. And I speak for my manager, Mr. Sothmann, and for Mr. Rasmussen also, for Mr. Mercier, Mr. Goad, the tape artists, Billy Paul, and myself; that we certainly appreciate your fine cooperation and all that you have done. We thank you for your attendance, for your faith, your confidence in our services that we're trying to hold for the glory of God. And we pray that God will bless you abundantly.

« E-2 † We also want to thank the Gardens here for letting us have this place, and for this our brother over here who's the, on the public address system doing a wonderful job. A great place like this with acoustics would surely be poor with all the roof open up there, but he's certainly doing a wonderful job, the engineer. We want to thank him. For the boys at the door, the ushers, for the organist, the cooperating ministers and all... I hope I don't leave anyone out. If I do, I don't mean to. We thank you each and every one.
Then I just come up a few moments ago to hear they was taking an--an offering, a love offering for me. I wished I didn't have to do that. We only want just to pay the expenses. And if the expenses is made before our services is over, there's no more offerings taken.

« E-3 † And then they give me a love offering because my expenses runs very heavy, runs at home... When I just don't have very big meetings, I keep it small so I can go where the Lord sends me. My expenses runs me whether I'm on the field or not, at home about a hundred dollars a day. And if I'm off four or five days, you see what it means. I'm that much behind. See?
And we send out handkerchiefs and so forth all over the world. We'd be glad to send you one if you want one. We've got some here tonight to be prayed over. And the biggest part and the greatest amount of miracles that I know of being done, is by the mail.

« E-4 † Sometime ago I was coming down from the New York, Boston. And I stopped over in Virginia at a little place that seated about eleven hundred people. I had just got inside the door when I, back behind a curtain or a little building, and I... or a little office rather.
And I heard the minister saying, "We asked Brother Roberts if he'd come and hold us a meeting. He said, 'You're too small.'" Said, "We asked Brother A. A. Allen if he'd come hold us a meeting, and Brother A. A. Allen said, 'You're--you're too small.'" But said, "Brother Branham didn't question it; he come."
Now, that was nice. But when I got to the platform I said, "Now, I appreciate the minister saying that, but the reason Brother Allen and Brother Roberts couldn't come, their obligation's too great."
