TONAWANDA, N. Y.

CLOSED my labors at this place for the present, last Sunday. Have nothing very encouraging to report, as the brother referred to in my last report, who had decided that he must obey, after keeping one Sabbath, which raised a tremendous excitement both in the church and community, yielded to the pressure brought to bear upon him and gave it up, claiming that the ten commandments are the old covenant. This produced such a reaction that for the time being it looked as though all was lost; but subsequent developments showed that this is not the case, and I have hope that something may be gathered yet. The hall being occupied so nearly the whole time, and the interest at La Salle not being sufficient to warrant continuing there, I was obliged to leave them for the present, but design to return as soon as consistent.
