Howard City, Oct. 12.

The weather has become so cold that we have moved our meeting to the Band Hall. We kept the tent up till this week. Thus far, eighteen have promised to keep the Sabbath. We close the effort here next Sunday evening. We shall then seek a new field near by, where we can meet with these for a few Sabbaths until they will do to leave alone.

Bro. J. O. Corliss has been with us since camp-meeting. A. O. Burrill.

We now have two families of Sabbath-keepers here. We hold prayer-meetings every Sabbath. We are now having calls for tracts, books, &c. I am visiting occasionally where people want to hear our views. Have had three invitations to speak in school-houses. I spoke once on the signs of the times, after which nearly all in the house, by a rising vote, expressed a desire to hear further on that subject. Cannot some brother come this way and preach? There are several small openings which should be improved soon.
