St. Lawrence Co., N. Y.

I HAVE held some meetings this winter in the town of Macomb. As the result, two have commenced keeping the Sabbath, others are deeply interested, and many are quite thoroughly investigating the truths we advocate. Have visited families, and scattered reading matter a distance of seven miles. Twelve are reading The Voice of Truth or the Reformer; four have subscribed for the Instructor.
Met with some opposition. A minister replying to us twice on the Sabbath question, claimed that the Sabbath was all right at creation, in the wilderness of Sin, and until we come to Christ. He then attempted to show from the New Testament that there was a change. This failing to convince all, he next told us that Constantine and the bishops of Rome effected a change, thus confirming previous statements of ours. Lastly he brought forward Barnabas and other spurious writers of the first and second centuries. We reviewed him with good freedom, the Lord helping. We think favorable impressions were made for the truth. Pray for us.
