Note from Bro. Frisbie.
By John Byington Frisbie
Bro. Smith: I have been lecturing in the town of Wright, Ottawa Co., to a crowded house of very attentive hearers, for one week past, where the interest is increasing daily. It is a thickly settled neighborhood of industrious, enterprising farmers, mostly non-professors, but a reading and intelligent people. And if the community embrace present truth, and carry it out with as much energy as they do their worldly affairs, they will be very apt to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom. I intend to continue at least a week more here, and longer if necessary, as the Lord may direct. The calls and invitations are from every direction for lectures. But I cannot lecture in but one place at once you know. Bro. Edgar is with me. P. S. I designed to go to Newaygo, but the prospect is dull of my getting there this Winter, as the interest to hear in this place is so great. The whole section of the country around is getting stirred up to hear. We are troubled to get a house large enough to hold the people. They are all attention. I am almost out of books: the five sets of bound volumes are gone. I think I could sell five more sets if I had them. This is the place for me.
