Flushing, Mich.

By I. D. Van Horn; S. H. Lane

We commenced meetings in this place June 22. This is a beautiful village of about six hundred inhabitants, situated in a fine farming district. The truth has never been presented at this place or in the immediate vicinity.
At our first meeting, about one hundred were present. The congregation has increased from the first, ranging from one hundred to four hundred. The best of attention is paid to the word spoken. The ministers of the various denominations represented here are using their influence to keep their church members from hearing; but notwithstanding this, many attend and seem deeply interested. People treat us kindly and are quite friendly, although strangers. We trust the Lord was in our coming here. Thirteen discourses have been delivered. We have just introduced the Sabbath question which, as far as we are able to judge, has made quite an impression on the minds of those who heard. We trust, with the blessing of the Lord, to follow and set home the truth, a good work will be accomplished and our labors not be in vain.
