DEAR BRO. WHITE:—Since my last, of the 14th, March, I have been visiting and holding meetings in Johnson, Stowe, Bristol, New Haven, Panton and Ferrisburg, Vt., Low Hampton, Milton and Ballston, N. Y.
March 14th and 15th, held evening meetings in Johnson Village and vicinity. Severe and stormy, but few in attendance.
In Stowe on Sabbath and First-day, 17th and 18th, a goodly number attended, and many seemed anxious to hear the word; but still the meeting did not move with all the freedom and spirit that God would have his people enjoy on such occasions. How desirable that the children of God should be active and vigilant in removing all hindering causes which tend to check the free course of the Spirit, that they may not be deprived of the divine blessing, designed for them on occasions of their holy convocations.223
Bro. Bingham conveyed me to Waitsfield, and over the green mountains westward to Bristol, where we attended to our appointment for an evening meeting the 20th.
Sabbath, March 24th, we had a profitable season in New Haven, with the Brn. of that place and Panton, at the house of Bro. Elon Everts. From thence, in company with Bro. Sperry, we held several meetings in Panton and Ferrisburg, to April 2d. We believe our labor was not in vain.
April 3d, 4th and 5th, spent in visiting and meeting in Low Hampton and Milton.
Sabbath and First-day, 7th and 8th, our meetings were at the house of Bro. Young, and the schoolhouse in Ballston. The subject of the last message was listened to with interest. We trust that some who have heard but little of our blessed hope in these parts until recently, are now investigating, and will come to a knowledge of the whole truth. My way from this is towards the south.
