Portland, Oregon.

By John Norton Loughborough

For the last week I have been assisting Brother Van Horn in meetings in Portland and East Portland. The Lord gave freedom to his servants, and edge to his truth. We were favored with splendid weather and good attentive audiences. During these meetings some few more have taken their stand to obey the truth.

The Sabbath-keepers of Portland and East Portland have now secured a hall for meetings at the corner of Fourth and I streets, East Portland, where meetings are to be held each Sabbath at 11 A. M., and prayer-meetings each Tuesday evening.

We start to-morrow morning for the Conference at Walla Walla. After our return Brother Van Horn designs to follow up the work in this vicinity to give permanence to the cause here.
