This Adventist minister was a popoular preacher and orator in his day, famed in his hometown of Concord, New Hampshire and throughout that state. ANS (pencil), heavy stock printed 5" X 3" penny postcard, Concord, NH, 12 July n.y. Near fine. Pencilled in Hook's large, erratic hand, he writes: "My Friend, / I am to Preach / at Waterloo, S.H. / next Sunday / July 19th / [upside down] John G. Hook / Will you please / arrange for / a place in Warner / for me to speak / Friday Evening 17th / and give Notice John G. Hook." Printed (entirely in brown) verso addressed in his hand to Nehemiah G. Ordway (1828-1907), noted New Hampshire politician and governor of the Dakota Territory (1880-84), who lived in Warner. Unusual bit of Seventh Day Adventist history.
