LAKEPORT, CAL.

BEGUN meetings in this place July 18, and have held eight services a week. Congregations have not been large, but there has been some interest from the first. For the past week we have been canvassing the law and the Sabbath. Quite a number are about satisfied upon the question and are thinking seriously of obeying all God's commandments. The editor of the paper published here has kindly granted us a column every week, which opportunity we shall endeavor to improve to set the truth before its readers.
There is considerable stir and searching of Bibles among the people since we came. We are trying to do what we can both “publicly and from house to house.” We are of good courage and labor in hope.
The people kindly consider our temporal wants and keep us well supplied.
We ask a special interest in your prayers at this time.
