The Only Sabbath Keeper Here
By Darius Myers
Dear Bro. White :—I feel thankful that you yet send me the Review. My sympathies are with you. I feel glad for the stand you have taken for the word of God, and the commandments. It also rejoices me to hear from those brethren that I have once loved so well, and those that I have known to be self-sacrificing, and self-denying. I should be glad to say a word of encouragement to those of like precious faith, for I feel that they have their trials from what I have seen here of the hatred manifested against the Lord's Sabbath, and its kindred truths. There are none here that have fully embraced the Sabbath, excepting myself. One or two are, however, almost persuaded, so much so that they have not of late labored on the seventh day. We have had no lectures here on this subject, only as I have talked with some of the Advent believers, and sometimes in meeting, and it makes me feel, and see from actions, that those who are saved will have to strive to enter in at the strait gate. I have often wished some of the brethren could have made it so as to come this way and held meetings. O, I should have been very glad to have seen Bro. Case when he was in Wisconsin, or Bro. Bates. Though I am not personally acquainted with Bro. Bates, yet I should have been very glad to have seen one of like faith. It may be that some one with the truth may yet pass this way.
