BRIEF REPORT.

By James White

SABBATH, the 13th, we spent with our dear brethren at Convis, making three successive Sabbaths that we have labored with this church. And we are happy to report that good results have followed. The church is revived, and we trust that a good work is going on with backsliders and the youth. Two more arose last Sabbath and expressed good desires and determinations. May others of the dear youth who help fill the seats at Sabbath meeting, take up the cross and follow the Saviour.

We spoke only about forty minutes. As the day was warm, and the ceiling of the house low, and there was a lack of air, we felt a faintness coming over us and we sat down. But Mrs. W., ever ready to make up our lack, arose and spoke with freedom an hour and a half. We plead for air in the house of God. Heaven has liberally given it without money and without price. We have not taken a cold for a year and a half, and the reason is simply this, we have a current of air through our bed-room, and sitting-room, and cannot speak in a close room. Again, we say, we plead for good fresh air, such as fills all out doors.
