Flushing, Mich.

By S. H. Lane

AFTER an absence of four weeks I returned to this place to follow up the good work which was commenced a few weeks since while laboring with the tent at this point.

The interest to hear the truth is still good. Meetings have been sustained each Sabbath, and a prayer-meeting each Thursday evening. The friends have leased a house in which to hold meetings for one year.

Last Sabbath about one hundred were present, the most of whom were Sabbath-keepers. After a short discourse, we enjoyed an excellent social meeting. The time was well filled up with short, heart-cheering testimonies. Often two would rise at the same time to speak. Fifty or more testimonies were given. Many good resolutions well wet down with tears were made. We seldom enjoy such a good meeting. Praise the Lord for his willingness to bless.

Bro. Van Horn joins me in labor in a few days. We shall endeavor with the help of the Lord to follow up the work until an organization is perfected. We also desire to labor in new fields in this immediate vicinity. We hope to be remembered in prayer by all who love the cause of present truth.
