Note from Tuscola.

By I. D. Van Horn; Dudley Marvin Canright

OUR last report was from Centerville. Since then we have held a week's meeting at Watrousville, which resulted in the encouragement of the brethren and sisters, and in their becoming more firmly established in the truths of the last warning message. They meet with considerable opposition, which only serves to make them more zealous, and drive them nearer the Lord.

At Vassar the work is still onward. We have met with them several times, and the interest for the truth is increasing among them. The brethren and sisters in these places are fast coming into that place where perfect order can be established among them. The most of them have given up their bad habits, and, we trust, are willing to sacrifice everything that will retard their progress in the truth.

We are now giving a course of lectures in the village of Tuscola. We have been engaged here for three weeks, and a few have commenced to obey God by keeping all of his commandments. The interest to hear the truth is quite good, and is now being increased, as Eld. Silliman, Methodist, has taken up against us, by trying to support the Sunday institution. We shall review him as soon as he is done. We have no fears for the result in the minds of the people. The truth is the Lord's, and will triumph, though there are but few that will receive it.

Pray for us that we may be humble enough to act only as instruments in the hands of God to do his will.
