ABOUT the middle of June the writer pitched a tent in Orange, Cal., and began a course of meetings. From the first the attendance was good, being from two hundred to three hundred each night. Before coming here, we were told that the people were so prejudiced that nothing could be done; but what a different experience the Lord had for us! When the Sabbath question was taken up, the people came more than ever, and continued to come for almost twelve weeks. Many have taken their stand for the truth, and joined the church. A number of others are keeping the Sabbath, who will, we feel sure, come in later. In July, with the help of Elder E. E. Andross, a church of twenty-eight members was organized. Since then fourteen others have been added to this number, making the present church-membership forty-two. The Sabbath-school membership is upward of seventy-five. Of these a number will soon be ready for baptism and entrance into the church. Thus God has wrought for souls. To him be all the praise.
