SINCE closing my labors in Oakland, I have been holding tent meetings here in Vallejo. Our tent has been here twenty-four days, during which time I have given twenty-eight lectures to congregations varying from two to five hundred. I have gone over the ground of the Sabbath, and we had our first Sabbath meeting last Sabbath. Five took their stand for the truth. Others will come out. Opposition sermons have been preached to which we reply to-morrow evening.
I have shared much of the blessing of God in this tent meeting. Coming here single handed, I felt that the Lord must help or I should fail of doing any good. His presence has been with me from the first. Still I labor on here, to gather in the results of our work. By letters from different parts of the State I learn that the cause is onward.
Let us all be workers, doing individually what we can to interest others in this important truth.
Pray for the success of our labors here.
