Longmont, Colorado.

By M. E. Cornell

WE began meetings in the tent at this place May 22, and up to the present time twenty-six discourses have been given. The number in attendance has increased from twenty-five to one hundred and fifty, with an average of about seventy-five regular interested hearers. Six or more have already decided to keep the Sabbath. A Methodist minister and his wife are of the number. Their testimony in our Sabbath meeting was truly rejoicing to our hearts.

The interest has greatly increased since the arrival of Eld. J. O. Corliss, June 1. His discourses have been well received by all classes. Our offer of the tent for the defense of Sunday keeping has been accepted by a popular Dunkard preacher, and a new interest will no doubt be awakened. The liberality of the friends has fully met our running tent expenses thus far. M. E. CORNELL. June 11.
