A Good Testimony.

By Charles L. Boyd

THE following I copy from a letter, recently received from the State of Massachusetts by one of our missionary workers:—

“I have received a number of copies of the SIGNS, and wondered where they came from. I want you to send me the SIGNS, and also the book you spoke of [Great Controversy].

“The reason I have not written sooner is that I wanted to read and thoroughly understand the doctrines which they teach. I am satisfied that the doctrines are thoroughly Scriptural. I am glad you sent me the SIGNS. I can now see and understand some things which always appeared strange to me. The Bible now seems to be shedding a new light. I must say that I have never read any paper that will stand beside the SIGNS for good, sound reasoning and pure religion. It is a power for good, and my prayer is that it may go on and prosper in the good work. I hope the whole land will be flooded with such literature.”

The writer inclosed $5.00 for a yearly subscription for the SIGNS, and some books.

We bid this friend Godspeed in his search for the truth, and pray that Heaven’s richest blessings may rest upon the editors and managers of this silent yet powerful evangelist, the SIGNS OF THE TIMES. CHAS. L. BOYD.
