DEAR BRO. WHITE:—I feel it a privilege and duty to write a few lines to you. I am thankful for the little light I have upon the present truth. It is just what is needed at the present day, when God's professed children are so cold, and backward in religion.
There are but three in this place, that are keeping the Sabbath of the Bible. There are no meetings within five miles, of any kind. A few have begun to investigate the subject of the change of the Sabbath. O, may the Lord open their eyes, that they may see and understand the truth.
A few weeks ago, Bro. R. F. Cottrell spent the Sabbath with us. We received much light from the truth he presented. May the Lord reward him.—The few that heard him, have talked much upon the subject, and we have good reason to hope, that some will soon decide for the Sabbath of the Lord. It is my earnest prayer, that the Lord may send laborers into his vineyard. We are almost famishing here, for want of the truth. I am very thankful to Bro. Cushman, for causing the Review and Herald to be sent to me. It is a great comfort to me to read the letters, and exhortations of the brethren and sisters. It is136like food to my soul. O, may the Lord give us grace and patience to endure unto the end. May we keep all his commandments, that we may have right to the tree of life, and enter in through the gates into the city.
