Progress of the Cause.

By John Norton Loughborough

“He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.” Ps. 126:6.

SOUTHAMPTON, ENGLAND.

Still the cause advances in “Old England;” if not as rapidly as we may desire, it moves nevertheless, and is getting hold of minds. Two more kept last Sabbath with us, and we have received many favorable responses from those to whom we are sending the Signs. Out of two hundred names selected from various sources in different parts of the kingdom, only two have declined to read the paper.
Our missionary work has increased to that extent that we deemed it needful to have more workers, and have therefore sent for Sister Maud Sisley to come from Bâle, Switzerland. By card received from her to-day we learn that she is with her friends at Tunbridge, England, and will be with us the first of next week.
May the Lord enable us all to humbly and earnestly do what our hands find to do in his cause, is our prayer.
J. N. LOUGHBOROUGH.
