From Bro. Cornell.

DEAR BRO. WHITE:—I have just finished the second course of lectures in the Town of Locke, Mich. Several more have joined the number of commandment-keepers there. They number now about twenty. Many others are almost persuaded. The opposition was great, and efforts were made to close the house against us. But they were not successful. Many threats were made, by those who oppose the present truth. Suffice it to say, that there was a clear manifestation of the Dragon Spirit that now begins to work in the children of disobedience which served to open the eyes of the honest seekers after truth, and a general interest and inquiry was wakened up throughout the community.
At the close of the lectures we had a blessed season in attending to the ordinances of the Lord's house. Truly, the institutions of the gospel, when obeyed from the heart, serve to unite God's children, and causes them to love each other with pure hearts fervently. Amen.
