MONTEREY, MASS.

I have given twenty-five discourses at this place amid much opposition from the clergy, which finally resulted in my being virtually shut out of the hall we had occupied. Thereupon, I went to visiting from house to house more than I could while speaking every night. In this way, I obtained four subscribers for the SIGNS, four for the INSTRUCTOR, one for LES SIGNES DES TEMPS, and sold about $10.00 worth of books. One good family took their stand on the truth; so we feel that these efforts were not wholly lost.
Through the influence of this brother I am now in Tyringham, Mass. I have given six discourses, and there seems to be some interest. The subject of last Monday was Spiritualism. As some thought the hall too small for the occasion, the M. E. church was offered, which was well filled. A Baptist clergyman present urged me to go to an adjoining town and repeat the same lecture. Pray for me that God may help.
