DEAR BRO. WHITE:—The Lord is prospering our efforts in this vicinity to advance his cause. The meeting in Oswego resulted in good. Some received strength from the Lord to declare themselves free from the influences that had hindered the work of God there. At our public meetings in Bro. Carpenter's Hall, some came in to hear the reasons of our faith, and quite an interest was manifested.
We have commenced meetings here in the village of Manville in a Baptist meeting-house. We spoke to them three times yesterday (First-day) on the reasons of our faith. The house was well filled. We look for the Lord's blessing on the effort. We still continue in that place through the week. There are ears to hear, and hearts that seem to desire to understand. J. N. LOUGHBOROUGH.
Lorain, Dec. 25th, 1854.
