MAINE

Burnham.—When we first pitched our tent in this place, much prejudice existed against us; but after hearing a few discourses, some confessed that they were mistaken in the people. We were recommended to have a police appointed to keep order, with the understanding that this was a hard place; but it is due the people here to say that we never have entered a new place where better attention was given to the word spoken than in this village. Our congregations range from fifty to two hundred. God is giving us the ears of the people, and we pray that many may give their hearts to the Lord. Some have already decided to keep all the commandments of God, and walk in the light of present truth. Our wants are all supplied by the liberality of the people here. May such be gathered in as shall be saved in the kingdom of God when Jesus comes. J. B. GOODRICH. CHAS. STRATTON.
