A Lonely Pilgrim in Illinois
By Sr. Yager
SR. YAGER writes from Pike Co., Ill.: Dear brethren and sisters, although I am a stranger to you, I would write you a few lines through the REVIEW. I trust that we are traveling the same road which leads to Heaven. I am a lonely pilgrim here. It is now one year since I moved from Waterloo, Wis., where I am a member of the Seventh-day Adventist church. I am the only one that keeps the Sabbath in this place. You may be assured that I have met with many a trial and difficulty on my way; but I will press on. I will trust in that God who delivered Daniel in the lion's den. By the grace of God I will try to keep his holy commandments that I may have right to the tree of life. My prayer is, that God will send some of his servants to preach the third angel's message in this place. Oh, how I long to go to our prayer and social meetings, and hear the brethren and sisters tell of the goodness of God, and their prospects of Heaven! But if I meet no more with them on earth, I hope I may meet with them in Heaven.
