JOHNSON, VERMONT.

By C. W. S.

THE following very interesting incident should be of much encouragement to those who are distributing tracts, selling the Health Almanacs, and spreading abroad the printed pages of truth for these last days. Sr. Gomoe embraced the truth four or five years ago. Prayerfully and faithfully she labored on alone until last June, when her husband was brought to see the light and to take his stand firmly on the truth. Now he is anxious that others share the same blessing.

I copy this from a private letter from my father. C. W. S.

“Bro. Gomoe and wife started out about two weeks ago to sell almanacs and distribute tracts which he bought with his own money. They went as far as Fairfax and were absent five days, calling at every house leaving tracts and selling an almanac if he could. In Cambridge they called on a family of the name of Townsend. Five days later, on their return, they chanced to call at the same place to warn. The family did not know them. As Sr. Gomoe went into the house she found the woman, tract in hand, and tears running down her cheeks. She immediately began to say, ‘A stranger left us these tracts, and we have learned that the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord.’ She and her husband were both convinced. Bro. Gomoe is much encouraged. He is going to try it again.”
