Embracing the Sabbath Truth

From Bro. Cottrell.

Elder James White—Dear Sir : I take this method of informing you, and the readers of the Review, that a friend of mine has favored me with some of your publications, and also the Review, which has served to call my mind to the investigation of the ancient Sabbath of the Lord; and as a result of the same, I have become fully satisfied that the law of God has not been abolished. I therefore determine to teach it both by precept and example. There is one other family in this neighborhood that is well nigh convinced that the law of God stands good, Sabbath and all.
I have been endeavoring for the last five years or more to proclaim the advent of the Lord Jesus as being near at hand. My prayer is that the Lord may give me strength to stand firm, and not falter amid the great trials and persecutions that I now have to endure for the truth's sake, and wait patiently the coming of the Lord with the angelic throng. Then shall I, if faithful, together with all the redeemed, inherit the city of God.
Yours in hope of immortality.
Wm. Cottrell.
