PACIFIC COAST.

Abridged from the SIGNS OF THE TIMES.

Portland, Oregon, Oct. 21.

For the last week I have been assisting Bro. Van Horn in meetings in Portland and East Portland. The Lord gave freedom to his servants, and edge to his truth. We were favored with good weather and attentive audiences. During these meetings a few more have taken their stand to obey the truth.

The Sabbath-keepers of Portland and East Portland have now secured a hall for meetings at the corner of Fourth and I streets, East Portland, where meetings are

to be held each Sabbath at 11 A. M., and prayer-meetings each Tuesday evening. We start to-morrow morning for the Conference at Walla Walla. After our return Bro. Van Horn designs to follow up the work in this vicinity, to give permanence to the cause here.

Lemoore, Cal., Oct. 25. Bro. J. L. Wood reports good meetings with the Lone Oak church. He has assisted them in organizing a Sabbath-school and in getting into working order. Since camp-meeting the cause of present truth has seemed to take new life. Several have commenced to keep the Sabbath. Bro. W. is holding meetings in a school-house about one mile from the camp-ground. The interest is quite good considering the location.
