SOLILOQUY, VA.

By J. R. S. Mowrey

Our quarterly meeting at Soliloquy was a feast to the waiting ones. The meetings began on the evening of Oct. 6 and continued until Oct. 9. Brn. Lane and Sawyer were not with us. Bro. H. C. Shipley was present and with this exception all were strangers to me, but we all saw eye to eye, and it was a season of rejoicing and one never to be forgotten.

The brethren are in earnest, and indeed we should naturally expect to find them thus; for they have been instructed in the things of God by men who have drank of the life-giving fountain. May the Lord bless Brn. Lane and Corliss for the good work which they have begun, and so far established, here. The cause is onward. Those who reject the light that is now shining cannot frame an excuse for their actions. I would add, I wish to be, and by the grace of God will be, found with all of like precious faith engaged in the good work.

Steps were taken at the above meeting preparatory to organizing a State Conference.
