D. MARSH

From Bro. Marsh.

BRO. SMITH: The blessing of a covenant keeping God has followed us all our days, and is more especially manifest to us in our old age. Four years ago my companion and myself were called into the light of present truth, and we have been trying to keep God's commandments ever since. We make no other calculation but to continue faithful to the end. God in his mercy has given us three of our children to go with us, two daughters and a son-in-law. So you see there are five of us now to bear witness to the truth of God's word; and there are others around us who see men as trees walking. We are laboring hard to disseminate the truth among them. The Bible is our book of reference, and that is good enough; but if we had the Review we should like it exceedingly. We are poor, but there is a prospect of a pension for me soon, and then I shall be able to get such things as we need. Till then we must be content. I am trying to labor in word and doctrine every First-day to respectable and attentive congregations. But few attend our Sabbath meetings.
