Brushton, Franklin Co., N. Y., June 10.

By M. H. Brown; H. H. Wilcox

We arrived here the 4th. Pitched our tent Thursday, and commenced public services Saturday eve.

Eld. Pike, first-day Adventist, held a tent-meeting here last summer, and several embraced the Advent doctrine and our views of man's nature and destiny; and here they are, without fold or shepherd. Although this field is an old one, yet we see many tokens of good already. Our congregations are made up in the main of the best class of the community, ranging in numbers from one hundred to two hundred. We have now held four meetings, with an increasing interest.

BRUSHTON, JUNE 17.—The interest here has increased up to the present time. We spent but a short time on the prophecies, just enough to get the ears of the people, and bring them to the Sabbath through the sanctuary and the messages.

Yesterday we took up the Sabbath question before large crowds that assembled in the morning, afternoon, and evening. The Spirit of the Lord was present in power to set home the truth, and the Lord blessed greatly. We labor on in hope and courage.
