Extracts from Letters.

Bro. P. E. Ferrin writes from Freeport Ills., June 28th, 1857. "We deeply feel the realities or effects of being pilgrims and strangers in a strange land. We have no continuing city here, but our eyes are fixed on one that is to come. We are poor, and it is needless to say that we are despised, for we are striving to live so that at the last great day we may be found heirs of that inheritance which is incorruptible, undefiled and that fadeth not away. 'Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ.' Titus ii, 13. As much as in us is, we are striving to live christians even in the midst of wicked, God-denying people."
