Meetings in Stowe, Vermont.
By A. S. Hutchins
A few weeks since, I held some sixteen meetings in Stowe, most of them at Moscow village. Quite a number of dear friends, for whose salvation we felt deeply, attended these meetings. The freedom enjoyed in the presentation of the truth, and in talking it in different families, the friendly feeling and interest manifested by those who heard it, gave us courage to believe that several would yield to their convictions, and obey God. But alas! how few of the many whom the truth and Holy Spirit convict of duty, have moral courage, and trust and confidence in God, sufficient to step out upon the unpopular truths of the third angel’s message. I labored here as long as I could consistently with the state of my health. One man decided to keep the Sabbath, and subscribed for the REVIEW. I had freedom in preaching one evening at his house. His companion and daughter acknowledge light on present truth. A mother of more than four score years of age, of the Freewill-Baptist faith, enjoyed the meeting much. Said she, “If my friends want to keep the Sabbath, I shall not oppose them. If I have any horns, I want them broken off.” Brethren and sisters in this vicinity, watch to do these precious souls good, and to build each other up. Says Christ, “Ye are the light of the world.” Wolcott, Vt., Dec. 20, 1870.
