Ferndale, Humboldt County, Cal.

WE have just closed a series of meetings on Dow's Prairie, Humboldt County, resulting in seventeen signing the covenant to keep all the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. Some others are keeping the Sabbath, and we trust will soon fully take their stand. We also organized a Sabbath-school of twenty-nine members, and established regular Sabbath meetings. Forty-five signed the anti-whisky and tobacco pledge, a number signing the teetotal pledge also. We began these meetings in the fall, but were interrupted several times by high waters, sickness, etc., but the interest was well kept up by visiting, when possible, and sending the SIGNS and tracts. The Lord blessed the work; to his name be the praise.
The work in Humboldt is moving onward. New ones are being added to the companies from time to time, and those who have rejected the truth are getting more bitter. Surely we are nearing the end.
