New Hampshire.

By P. C. Rodman

RETURNED home April 3, 1873, after an absence of about six months. I have been laboring most of the time in Lincoln, Woodstock, Thornton, and Campton, Grafton Co., N. H. I commenced in North Woodstock. Had a good hearing for a scattered community, and as a result, seven began to keep the Sabbath. One has since given up the struggle, two others left for other parts in a few weeks. I saw the remaining four about two weeks since. Found them advancing in the truth and grace of God.

My last effort was in Campton. The people there came in to hear quite as well as we could expect. Seven are keeping the Sabbath now, and we still hope for others there if those now decided to obey take a straight forward, consistent course, and we expect they will.

A Bible-class was started in each of these places, and those who attend are becoming more and more interested.

The spiritualists have been considerably stirred in Thornton and Campton, and have shown some opposition, but truth has triumphed because of the blessing of God.

The weather and going have been more unfavorable than usual for meetings the past winter, but we have tried to do the best we could. We see much room for improvement, and, by the grace of God, we mean to go forward.

The people have been very kind to us, with but few exceptions; for which we are thankful, and we remember them all with kind feelings. P. C. Rodman.
