BRIEF EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS.
We are every day in receipt of letters from various ones, expressing their love for the truth, thanks for the paper, &c. It is impossible to print a tithe of them. We give below a few brief extracts:— John Starr writes, “I am grateful for the REVIEW, for I do feel that God has blessed me through its columns.” “I have taken the REVIEW two years, and most all of the papers have been read by others. Many of them come back, then I send them again and again.” R. A. Worden says, “The REVIEW has been our only Sabbath preacher for fifteen years, and its weekly visits are hailed with as much delight as an inn by a weary traveler.” D. A. Judy writes, “This is the second Sabbath that I have ever kept. I am the only Sabbath-keeper in this part of the county. I may be persecuted, but by the help of God I want to live a prayerful life and overcome.” J. R. S. Mourey writes from Va., “Bro. H. J. Baxter and myself kept last Sabbath, the first in the New Year, and the first we ever kept. The consideration of the Sabbath of the Lord has thrown a halo of light across my path such as no other subject could have given. I wish to labor in this cause to the extent of my means.” Sr. Cora Thayer writes from Georgetown, Colorado, to the brethren and sisters in Mich., her former home, “Through the kindness of a sister in Flint, I have received the REVIEW, and in this way would return thanks for it. There are a few here who are interested in the Sabbath question. I think a good work could be done here if we could have a course of lectures. The place has about three thousand inhabitants. . . . I came here an invalid, but by the blessing of God my health is restored.” E. T. Hamberg, of Illinois, writes in a business letter, “Please send me ‘United States in Prophecy.’ I have read ‘Thoughts on Revelation,’ and have been repaid many times the price of the book in doing it. About five years ago, I chanced to pick up a paper out in Iowa. It was the REVIEW. I became interested in the truths that were in it, and have been reading it and the SIGNS part of the time. Pray for me, that my faith may be strong to battle with those of a different belief, for I am alone.”
