MENDON.—I began meetings in a schoolhouse six miles north of Mendon, March 30, among the First-day Adventist people. I was afraid that I should meet with a great deal of prejudice, but they were anxious to learn the truth, and came nearly every night, bringing their Bibles, and studying the prophecies, the Sabbath, the seal of God, and the mark of the Beast. Last evening, after a discourse on “man's excuses for not obeying the Lord, and God's answers,” we asked all to rise to their feet who would obey the Lord instead of man, and seven adults arose. The Lord shall have all the praise, for it was His precious word that convinced them; but I am thankful that He gives me the privilege of proclaiming these precious truths to the people.

As I was riding along the road yesterday, a man called to me. There was another man with the one who called, and they began to ask questions, and with the word of God I answered them. I stayed there beside the road for nearly an hour. The man who called me said he had received light. He invited me to his home to study the Bible with him.

Brethren and sisters, go forward in the strength of God, and success is sure. B. HAGLE.
