VIRGINIA

By I. Sanborn

Soliloquy.—We had an excellent quarterly meeting at this place. Nearly all the members were present. Sabbath morning we had an interesting Sabbath-school and a good social meeting, followed by a sermon on the importance of the Testimonies, and their practical use in developing character. This church will now provide themselves with the circulating library.
Sunday morning our meeting was characterized with a spirit of earnestness and labor. A new club of twenty-one copies of Signs was taken for six months. Mrs. Sanborn is now expecting to organize a V. M. society this week. We think there is some good material here for such a society. About $21 of tithe money was received by the treasurer. Over ten dollars were paid on the tract fund.
The outside interest was good. Four were received into the church, and others are almost persuaded to accept the truth. As we realize that the great day of God's wrath is hastening upon a slumbering world, and see how hard it is to awaken souls to a true sense of their condition, we feel like crying mightily unto God for help to save the perishing. I. SANBORN.
