WHAT THEY SAY.

Sister M. J. Casselman, of Jackson county, Mich., speaks as follows of her interest in the work in Europe:—

I rejoice that I shall soon be able to tell my friends living in Canada and England, that the blessed truths of the third angel’s message are printed under their own government, and that there are now missionaries in Europe teaching the same truths that we hold in America. Bless the Lord for one spirit, and a united truth all over the earth.

Although I am not acquainted with Bro. Andrews, I sympathize with him in his work. I can realize something of the opposition he has to meet, and I pray that God may strengthen and support him. I believe he will.

Since attending our camp-meeting, I feel like living this truth as never before, and doing all in my power to lead others to it.

Bro. E. H. Pullen writes from Bon Homme county, Dakota, under date of Nov. 29, 1878:—

For a short time past I have been doing tract and missionary work among the Russians here. In one locality that I visited four are now keeping the Sabbath of the Lord, and some fourteen more are deeply interested and will probably take hold of the truth, at least the four think so. This interest ought to be followed up by a live (German) teacher.

I have been trying to do something for the cause at Olivet. Four have taken a stand with the remnant people. I would have remained there longer, but the school-house was closed against me. One of the four, a young man who was a Methodist, is about to enter the ministry. If he proves faithful, he will be a help to the cause in Dakota. He has already commenced work

by following up the interest at Olivet, and is doing what he can among his friends and relatives.

I expect to labor, if the Lord will, at Bon Homme, and I earnestly hope that the friends of the cause, and especially those in Minnesota, will remember me at the throne of grace; for I am in need of your prayers that utterance may be given me.

Sister Naylor writes from Jefferson county, Ill.:—

I cannot do without the REVIEW, and although money is very scarce with us, I willingly do without something else for the sake of having it.

The following is a specimen of the “Babel” condition of the M. E. church here. They “got up” a dance for a widow in town, intending the proceeds for her use. Lo, they came out $7.50 in debt; and the joke came just here, a pious lady said she hoped the widow would not have the debt to pay.

Sister C. E. Bell writes from Waupaca county, Wis., as follows:—

I am glad to see in the REVIEW reports of the prosperity of the cause of Christ in foreign lands. I am especially glad to know that God is working in Egypt, which has so long lain in darkness though it was the theater of such mighty works in the days of Moses. May God again show forth his power in the land of the Pharaohs, and bring many souls to acknowledge his truth.

I love the truth, and love to hear of others who love it and walk uprightly before God. May God bless his work and workers.
