RUSSELL HOAG

By Russell Hoag

From Bro. Hoag.

BRO. SMITH: As I read the Review from week to week, I think of the apostle when he said, Exhort one another, and so much the more as ye see the day approaching. Brethren and sisters, Do we not see the day approaching? How it becomes us to adorn the profession we have made, by a well-ordered life and a godly conversation! I am trying to live more faithful than I have done, and be a living epistle known and read of all men.

Jesus has gone before us to prepare mansions for us. How important it is we should watch and pray. I am the only one that takes the Review in this large city. I hope the time is not far distant when this truth will be preached here. I believe there are some honest ones here. I hope we may be the means of doing some good in visiting our friends in different parts of the State. We have been to two conference meetings in this State. The interest manifested in these meetings was good, and the friends we have met with will not soon be forgotten.

We are now deprived of the privilege of meeting with those of like precious faith. We intend to settle with the people of God wherever duty directs.
