Sr. L. Pancoast writes from Clark Co. Ohio: I deem it a privilege and duty, as I am one of the lonely ones, to speak to you through the Review. I feel that I am unworthy of the privilege. My heart is often made to rejoice by reading the cheering testimonies in the paper, which are very encouraging. It has been nearly a year since I first heard preaching from the Adventists. I was led through curiosity to the Bowersville tent, thinking I would care nothing about the preaching; but when I got there and heard it, I found it far different from what I had expected. I heard from Brn. Waggoner and Van Horn, and from the books, many truths that I had long desired to understand; truths for which I am very thankful. I now delight in the present truth. I was soon convicted, and felt that it was my duty to keep the Sabbath, but living fifteen miles from Bowersville, I was entirely alone in my convictions of the truth after I came home. I labored some three or four Sabbaths under a guilty conscience, through dread of the cross. The more I read and thought, the more guilty I felt. I knew I was violating the commandments; but if I kept them, I feared all would be against me, as no one gave me any encouragement. I was laughed at if I spoke of keeping the seventh day. I then read the Thoughts on the Revelation, which explained the seal of God and the mark of the beast. After reading this work, I felt that, others do as they might, I would obey the truth. And I found when I commenced keeping the Sabbath, that the cross was much lighter than I had expected. Then I could rejoice in the Lord, feeling that I was, at least, trying to keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. I now love the Advent name. It is blessed news to hear of Jesus' soon coming.
