The Sun Shines in Baltimore.

Concerning the meetings now being held by Eld. R. F. Cottrell in Woodbury, a suburban village of the city of Baltimore, the Baltimore Sun says:

“Eld. R. F. Cottrell, a minister of the Seventh-day Adventists, from Ridgeway, New York, is at present attracting much attention from the inhabitants of Woodbury and surrounding country. He lectures in Knight’s Chapel on the prophecies. His followers believe in the second advent of the Saviour, but do not undertake to set the time, though believing it near at hand. They strictly observe Saturday as the Bible Sabbath, and hold that the time has come for the proclamation of the promised message of Rev. 14 : 9–12 to be given as the closing warning of the gospel age. The elder claims that this country is clearly indicated in prophecy, and that we are to have no king and no Pope. The Seventh-day Adventists believe in the press. They have two publishing offices, one in Michigan and one in California, with power presses, and print a paper at Bale, Switzerland. They publish in several different languages.”
