THANKFUL FOR LIGHT.

By L. L. Howard

Bro. L. L. Howard writes from Dartmouth, Mass., Jan. 6, 1868: As I am unaccustomed to writing for the press, I have thought I might be excused from that task; but after passing through an experience of some weeks in company with Bro. and Sr. White, I may be permitted to say that I feel sincerely thankful that God in his providence sent them to Maine. I know it has removed a great amount of prejudice from the minds of many, and I trust placed the cause on a footing where it will prosper.

In regard to myself I can say that the experience of the few weeks past has wonderfully relieved my mind, so that I can heartily support the cause of present truth on points where before there were lingering doubts remaining. I see now more clearly than ever before the necessity of the Testimonies in connection with the third angel's message; and I can say, Thank God, for giving us light to guide us in this hour of great peril.

Since Bro. and Sr. White, and Bro. Andrews left Maine and New Hampshire, the work is still onward. Some new ones are coming in, and brethren and sisters are making haste to get ready for the day of trouble which is at hand.
