Report from Bro. Haskell.
By Stephen N. Haskell
JUNE 29, I went to Boston and remained with Bro. Cornell over Sabbath and first-day. On Sabbath there was quite a gathering of Sabbath-keepers, most of whom have embraced the Sabbath during the last year. Boston is a discouraging field of labor, for there is not an element that is opposed to the law of God but what can be found there. Notwithstanding this, there are encouraging features in laboring there. A few are constantly embracing the truth, and show that they love it by their readiness to take hold of it and the sacrifices they make in so doing; and if they continue faithful a rich reward will be theirs hereafter. Neither is the influence of the meetings confined to Boston; but in the country for many miles distant, individuals may be found, who perhaps never heard but a few sermons, yet have the love of the truth in their hearts, and are trying to live it out. The meetings near Fourth street closed Sunday afternoon. The services lasted in the afternoon about two hours. The deepest interest was manifested, to the close. At its close, two policemen, with quite a number of others, subscribed for the REVIEW. Books were also taken. The interest manifested by the police in preserving order from the commencement of the meetings in that place, was appreciated by the friends of the cause. Eternity alone can reveal the fruits of the Boston enterprise. S. N. HASKELL.
