LOCK HAVEN.—Our tent effort which opened July 14, came to a close September 15. When we came here, there were only two Sabbath-keepers, but the labor of ten weeks has resulted in adding fifteen new Sabbath-keepers, for which we praise the Giver of all perfect gifts. Last week we had the privilege of baptizing eleven of this number, and others are expecting to be baptized soon.

A nice room, centrally located, has been rented, and is fitted up for church purposes. Meetings will be held every evening with the exception of Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and will be conducted by Brother E. W. Durkee, our licentiate, assisted by our colporteur, Brother J. S. Glunt.

There are also twenty-five families that are interested in the third angel's message, who are being labored with. Other interests have been awakened in the vicinity, which we know will add to this number, if worked with care. Some members just baptized have begun paying tithe, which has already amounted to twelve dollars.

Another item of interest is that two of the men holding very good positions, are allowed to keep the Sabbath and retain their positions. Surely the Lord is good and greatly to be praised.
