Extracts from Letters.

Bro. M. H. Leonard writes from Burlington, Mich., Aug. 20th, 1858: "There are a few here in Burlington that are trying to get through to the kingdom. We hold our meetings regularly, and the Lord is with us by his blessed Spirit to comfort and bless us. We mean to hold out to the end and stand on mount Zion. The Devil, that old Adversary, is trying hard to tear down the church here, and destroy what God has planted; but the gates of hell cannot prevail against it. If we hold on we shall be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men. May this encourage us to endure till the Third Angel's Message, the last to a dying world, is completed, when the Lord will call the sleeping millions, with our dead friends, from their dusty beds to join with us, and be caught up to meet him in the air. His promises are sure; they will stand forever; and he will spare us as a man spareth his own son that serveth him."
