Clare Co., Mich.

By J. O. Corliss

THURSDAY, Sept. 26, I left home to visit the church in Vernon, and finish a course of lectures I commenced there last winter. Bro. W. N. Haskins joined me in labor at this place.

We have given fifteen discourses, which we trust will result in some permanent good. One more has taken a decided stand in favor of the truth. We have met with some opposition from a Disciple minister, the taking the position that the law was abolished at the cross, and nine of these commandments re-enacted in the New Testament. The brethren, after hearing him, and seeing his unscriptural position, have expressed themselves firmer in the truth than before.

We have commenced a course of lectures in what is known as the Green Settlement, six miles north of Clare. There seems to be a good interest manifested to hear the truth. We hope to have the prayers of God's people, that we may move in the counsel of the Lord, so that our labors may be blessed of him. Our P. O. address is now Clare, Clare Co., Mich.
