Note from Bro. Smith and Littlejohn.

By Uriah Smith; W. H. Littlejohn

OUR meetings in Fentonville closed after a continuance of two weeks. Indifference on the part of the people prevented our getting a hearing to a sufficient extent to produce any visible results. There were some favorable circumstances, which render the prospect of the truth's taking effect in that place, less discouraging than it would otherwise be. In a place of such stir and activity, there must be something of novelty connected with any movement to attract the attention of the people. If a tent could go there, we think a good hearing could be secured.

Sabbath, Oct. 2, we spent pleasantly, and profitably, we trust, with the church in Holly. From this place, we went, by advice of the Gen. Conf. Committee, to Tittabawassee. Here we spent six days, presenting to the church those portions of present truth on which the enemy had been making special attacks in that church, and on which he was attempting to overthrow the faith of some. We felt matters there, we think, in a much improved state.

From this point, we designed to visit the church in Watrousville; but being unexpectedly called to Battle Creek on business, we returned to our respective homes to spend a short season.
