Extracts from Letters.

Sister L. Harrington writes from Claremont, N. H., April 4th, 1858 : "It is six years this Spring since I saw the seventh day to be the Sabbath of the Lord. I feel thankful for his goodness to me in letting me see the light and glory that shines around this truth. I never shall forget the day when I made up my mind to keep all the Commandments of God and the Faith of Jesus. Although I have not the privilege of meeting on the Sabbath in this place for worship. yet I often think of others that do enjoy that privilege, and hope they prize it as they should. I helieve the Lord is soon coming to gather his poor afflicted people. It rejoices my heart to think our redemption draws nigh; that if faithful we shall meet all the loved ones that are sleeping in Jesus, and with them he caught up to meet the Lord in the air. O may we have our loins girt with truth and we like unto men that wait for their Lord when he shall return from the wedding, that we may open unto him immediately, I hope to be an overcomer and with the remnant finally sit down in his kingdom, with Abraham. Isaac and Jacob, to go no more out forever. O, blessed be God for the prospect of eternal life when Jesus comes! I feel that the Lord blesses me now while I write."
