NORTH PACIFIC MISSION,
By I. D. Van Horn
WE have just closed our tent-meeting in Salem, and have taken down the tent. The weather is so unfavorable and the nights are so cold that we have decided not to pitch it again this season. Although the tent is down, yet our work is not done in this place. We have rented a meeting-house, and shall continue to hold meetings every Sabbath and first-day, and prayer-meetings in the week. More than thirty have decided to keep the Sabbath, and more than that number are convinced of duty in that direction. We shall try to perfect the work here, and form a church. This will take time, and we have decided to do this before going to another place. Salem, O., Sept. 5, 1876.
