AN INTERESTING V. M. MEETING.

By Stephen Nelson Haskell

On the evening of July 22, I attended a meeting of the Vigilant Society at Oakland, Cal. This society has twenty-six active members residing at this place. Interesting letters were read from British Columbia, Australia, Maine, and different points on the Pacific Coast. Those present of other nationalities, German, French, and Danish, manifested much interest for those of their native tongue. Seventy-five copies of Stimme der Wahrheit (German) were immediately subscribed for, to be sent to Oakland, besides several copies to Germany. A few copies of the Tidende and Les Signes des Temps were already being taken, but a desire to increase the number was expressed, and the matter of deciding how many was referred to the officers of the society. Every V. M. society in the country should seek for avenues to foreign countries, through which to carry the light of present truth to people of other tongues.
