CHAS. L. BOYD

By Chas. L. Boyd

Nebraska.

SINCE my last report, I have labored some among the friends at Stromsburg. Three more have signed the covenant, thus making a company of ten. A leader is elected, a Sabbath-school organized, and meetings held every Sabbath.

Have also held a series of meetings about seven miles from Stromsburg. Found the people here very ready to receive the truths of the third angel’s message. Thirteen have signed the covenant, among whom are the Methodist and United Brethren class-leaders. Others are keeping the Sabbath.

The day the covenant was signed, the spirit of the last phase of the two-horned beast was very manifest. One leading man in the United Brethren church arose, and expressed his desire for the time to come when the Sabbath (Sunday) should be established by law, and all be obliged to observe it, this subject being the foundation of the discourse just delivered. Arrangements have been made for monthly meetings, alternately, at each of these places the first Sabbath in every month. Have just commenced meetings seven miles north-west of Seward.

My address is Seward, Seward Co., Neb.
