OCTOBER 12 I began meetings in Rothbury. There is a company of Sabbath-keepers here, members of the Shelby church. From the first, there was some interest to hear. I continued to labor in public and from house to house for five weeks. One family took their stand on the whole truth; four persons were baptized, and three others joined the church. By invitation, I then went to Elbridge, and labored ten days. Here another accepted the truth, and was baptized, and taken into the Shelby church. I then spent two weeks with the friends in Crystal Valley. One who had turned from the Sabbath again took his place among God’s people.

I also spent one week with the Denver church, where I found the friends greatly discouraged; but by calling their attention to the only true Pattern, and the importance of keeping their minds fixed on him, they took courage. Satan is pleased to have God’s people give up to discouragement, but Christ is sad. L. A. KELLOGG.

CADILLAC.—The work here is progressing slowly but surely. An effort has been made to close all places of business on Sunday; but the mayor, who has read the Sentinel this summer, stopped the movement. There is now some discussion going on in the city papers on the subject. Brother E. A. Bristol has been holding meetings in a schoolhouse near by, and six persons have begun to serve the Lord. O. SOULE.

LAKEVIEW.—Some time ago the Lord indicated it to be my duty to devote my time to the work at this place. He has set his seal to the work, and eight persons have given their hearts to the Lord. Praise God. ALBERT WEEKS.
