CRUMBS OF COMFORT.

By Charles P. Whitford

A FRIEND to whom some of our publications have been sent writes:—

“Please receive many thanks for the unmerited favor of books and the kind invitation to camp-meeting. I spend most of my spare time in reading and studying those books, and think the doctrines they teach must be the truth. I am convinced of this by the plain Scripture testimony referred to in the tract, ‘Which Day Do You Keep? and Why?’ It is very plain indeed. Oh! why have people been so deceived?”

Another writes as follows: “I received those postal cards from you, for which I return many thanks, not only for the cards themselves, but for the feelings of interest in my present and future welfare which must have prompted the sending of them. I have read them carefully and with much interest, reading all the references, and thinking of them. I also received a short time ago two numbers of the SIGNS OF THE TIMES, which I read with much interest. I am not one to do anything without due deliberation, but what I really feel in my heart to be true, that would I accept even if I must stand entirely alone, for I ‘dare to do right.’”

Let us all be comforted, and take courage. The work of God is onward, and soon will close forever.
