GRAND RALLY IN VERMONT.

(Extract from Personal Letter.)
OUR institute was good. Eleven persons were present who expect to canvass. I have attended a great many special meetings among this people, but I do not think that I ever attended one where the presence of the Holy Spirit was felt and appreciated more than at this little institute. Two of our brethren who were in attendance had a marked experience, and feel that the Lord has given them a direct call to the canvassing work. One of these is an elder of a church; the other a man about forty or forty-five years of age. When the Lord lays the burden of canvassing upon men, and they answer the call, if they remain humble, so that God can use them, something will be done.
I feel to thank God that the canvassing work in Vermont is reviving. Two years ago when I came to this conference, there was nothing doing in the book line, and it has taken quite a hard pull to get it started again, but we shall continue to work and pray, and hope that the Lord will still lay the burden upon those whom he can use.
J. W. WATT, Pres. of Vermont Conf.
