THE following brief statement of the result of the tent work this summer in Nevada, we take from a private letter written by Elder Briggs to an employe in this office:—

"The Lord's work here moves forward prosperously. Thirty have signed the covenant. We shall probably buy a small house to meet in, and we trust the company here will be left in good working order. Several of these new converts have made great sacrifices for the truth's sake. One man who has heretofore worked for $35 a week, has left that position, and is working for $9 a week, in order to keep the Lord's Sabbath. Five of those who have signed the covenant are, or have been, school teachers. How joyful those will be, who have kept the truth, even though it has been at a great sacrifice."
