A Note From the Vermont Tent.

By Albert C. Bourdeau; Daniel T. Bourdeau

The good work is still progressing here. We have been here two weeks and two days and have given twenty-four lectures. Our average attendance is from one hundred to three hundred and fifty. We never saw a better interest in Vermont. A few have already commenced to keep the Sabbath. Last Sabbath we held our first Sabbath meeting under the tent. Several of our brethren and sisters from Strasburg, Brownington, etc., were in, and eight new ones spoke in our social meeting, expressing a strong desire to know the truth and walk in its light. We have more calls than we can make. Several have come in from neighboring towns. God is hearing the prayers of our dear brethren. This place is situated six miles east of Island Pond. One of us will locate in this section through the winter. Still pray for us.

P. S. Sept. 23. Our meetings have continued here another week, over four Sundays in all, with increasing interest. Several are deciding to embrace the truth. Last Sabbath was a good day to us, and to the friends in this place. Yesterday, Sunday, held three very interesting meetings, the last ones for this season, under the tent. To-day, we take down the tent, giving Bro. W. J. Cross, who has assisted us this season free from charges, a chance to return to his family; and we will continue our meetings evenings and Sundays in a meeting-house in this place, as long as the interest will demand. Our Hymns and Tunes for new fields, etc., are just what we need. We disposed of twenty-five copies, all that we had on hand, yesterday.
