By D. P. Curtiss; F. W. Morse

Closed our meetings here on Sunday, July 30th. Gave 24 discourses in all. The Tenhassen brethren sustained us nobly in our efforts. Had good liberty, generally, in presenting the truth, and sometimes unusual freedom. But the congregations were very irregular and fluctuating. A few became deeply interested. A very intelligent gentleman and his wife, a leading man in the county, not professors of religion, were deeply moved, and promised to continue the investigation. They were obliged to leave the place before we closed. We supplied them with reading matter, and hope that the Lord may work with them, until they take their stand upon the truth. The lady told us that she should keep the Sabbath. The ministers, and most of the leading men who professed to be anxious for the tent to come there, used the “stay away” argument. Harvest coming on, and the return of the grasshoppers, rendered it necessary for us to close. We shall not resume labor until after harvest.
