NEW YORK.

Rome.

Our actual church membership here is now about fifty. Quite a number more will join soon. Probably Bro. Hall will give another opportunity for baptism next Sabbath. The general interest seems to be as good as ever. Nearly all who have embraced the truth are still faithful. Quite a number are growing strong in the work. But there is danger of trouble and trial here as elsewhere. With all the admonition and warning we have given, some must busy their tongues with other people's matters. Such persons should be dealt with faithfully.

Thus ends my labor in New York for the present. I have never enjoyed laboring in any field better than here, and I leave them with many regrets. We now go to New England for a short time, to labor in new places.

Pulaski.

Our attendance and interest keep up remarkably, considering that it has rained more or less nearly every day during the past week. There is a favorable feeling toward us in the community generally. Several of the clergymen attend the meetings. The Baptist minister, especially, treats us very courteously. Had the tent about full yesterday P. M., and still more in the evening.

West Valley, Cattaraugus Co.

BRO. WELCH and myself labored at this place and in two school-houses four miles distant, about seven weeks. A spirit of inquiry was stirred up in the minds of many who had never before given their attention to the doctrines taught by S. D. Adventists. As a result of our labors, eight in the village of West Valley have accepted the truth. These friends will unite, as soon as possible, with the West Otto church. Several others are convinced that we are right, and still others are half convinced.

We obtained several subscribers to our periodicals.

I now go to Smethport, Pa., to assist Bro. J. G. Saunders in running the tent.
