Note from Bro. H. S. Lay.
By Editor
[From a private letter of his to a brother here, we take liberty to extract the following:] "We are getting along pretty well here. I think. Several have embraced the truth since you were here. C. S. has come out quite strong and determined; others have embraced the truth as follows: M. F. and his wife, G. F., Mrs. S. and daughter, at the toll-gate, and Mr. B's. whole family, I believe. Father B. (the white headed pilgrim you spoke of,) is coming along, and takes quite an active part in our meetings. Last Sabbath he spoke four times. He says he thinks the seventh day is the right day to keep. He has stood alone for several years, but he believes God is with us. He appears very humble and child-like. "We have meetings every Wednesday evening, and on the Sabbath once in two weeks. We would have meetings every Sabbath, but the school-house is occupied so as to prevent. We have good meetings. Last Sabbath we met with the church in Watsoo and had a good meeting. "I think that the number in Allegan who are now keeping the Sabbath as the result of Bro. Loughborough's meetings is about fourteen or fifteen. Several others are almost persuaded to be Sabbath-keepers. Some more, I think, will soon decide to keep all the Commandments of God, and go through to Mt. Zion. I feel much encouraged to go on in this cause. It is a glorious cause to be engaged in. A glorious reward is in reserve for the faithful, and soon to be realized."
