Nova Scotia

By William Guthrie

HALIFAX.—I am led to write a second note regarding help for the new Halifax church. Since my first note, which appeared January 28 in our good paper, we have received $18.50. I feel satisfied that the reason for our receipts being so small is the fact that the call was for so small a sum that all have thought that others would send the needed amount, and thus but few have sent anything. Any possible surplus will be devoted to mission work under the Canadian Union Conference.

So I beg of you, do not delay, but act at once. We have done our utmost here, and need help in raising the $487.82 lacking on the new church in this city.

As I reported, our membership is largely made up of sisters. We have told our sisters here of your love for the truth, and I rest confidently in the belief that help will come. We have been hard at work since the church was dedicated, and have just entered in earnest upon the discussion of the Sabbath question. At the close of the service, February 19, six dear souls professed faith in the binding obligation of the Sabbath of the fourth commandment. We have also great hope of others who are yet undecided.

Please send all money by postal or express orders to the treasurer of the General Conference, 222 North Capitol St., Washington, D. C., or to William Guthrie, 282 Maynard St., Halifax, Nova Scotia. Bank drafts cost twenty-five cents exchange here. WM. GUTHRIE.
