REPORT FROM BRO. CORNELL.

By M. E. Cornell

The good work is still going on in this place. Eleven have been baptized. A deep solemnity pervades the meetings. At almost every meeting some one or more make a start for the kingdom. In several families the family altar is erected for the first time. Tobacco, jewelry, and other idols, are being put away with a hearty good-will, and the testimonies begin to ring with humble expressions of confidence in the third angel's message, present truth, the Lord's soon coming, &c. From thirty to forty speak in the social meetings. At the last meeting six more arose for prayers. There has been a steady advance from the first, and there is a prospect of many more being gathered in. For all this we thank the Lord and take courage. Brethren pray for us. M. E. CORNELL.
