KOMSTAD, CLAY CO., DAK. TER.
The following is an extract from a letter to the SVENSK ADVENT HEROLD from a member of the last legislature in Dakota95Territory, who is now keeping the Sabbath: “I may first thank you for your instructive paper, which I have read for over two years. . . . I am fully convinced that the seventh day is the Sabbath, as well of the New Testament as of the Old. “Here are a few Sabbath-keepers. I am yet unknown to the most of them. They are Danes, and some are Swedes. The Scandinavian population here are mostly Lutherans, with a few Baptists. Here is a great field of labor for a preacher. Six counties here are more or less settled with Scandinavians, and all of the three Scandinavian nations are pretty well represented. “In our legislature this winter, the day for holding school-meetings was changed from Saturday to Tuesday, that those who observe the seventh day may have the privilege of attending.”
