VIRGINIA TENT.

By E. B. Lane; J. O. Corliss

We pitched our tent on a farm in the country, and commenced meetings July 14. We are near a small group of houses called Newport, in Page Co. The interest to hear has increased from the first, and our congregations exceed the usual village gatherings. We passed over the prophecies and sanctuary, to the Sabbath question, in one week, and held our first Sabbath meeting last Sabbath, with a good attendance. We hear of several families that have decided to keep the Sabbath. We expect to raise up a church here; but who can tell?

We are pleased with Bro. White’s suggestion on ministers’ reports, and decide to send a postal card each week.
