NEW HAMPSHIRE.

By M. Wood; F. A. Buzzell

Francestown, July 11.

Commenced meetings in this place, June 7. Have given thirty-four discourses. As a result thus far, there are four (heads of families, with one exception) keeping the Bible Sabbath. We have obtained two subscribers for the REVIEW, one for the SIGNS, and sold eight or nine dollars’ worth of books, charts, etc.

Since the presentation of the Sabbath, many things have arisen of a discouraging nature, and well calculated to cast a distracting influence upon our work in this place. Those who were our warmest friends, and openly averred that God had sent us to this place, are now our bitterest foes, using every means possible to

keep people away from the tent, even hiring them to remain away. They have circulated the most fabulous reports about us, and have threatened to pull down our tent, and drive us out of town. Still the work moves forward. There are others here that we expect will ere long obey the truth. Pray for us. M. Wood. F. A. Buzzell.
