Isaac Sanborn

By Isaac Sanborn

From Bro. Sanborn.

Bro. Smith: As I have been disappointed in not attending the Conference at Battle Creek, I write a few lines, thinking it may be encouraging to the remnant to hear that the Third Angel's Message is on the rise in this part of the field. I have recently been holding

meetings in Winabago Co., Ills., and six received the truth. Others are inquiring the way to

mount Zion. O that the Lord may give them the desired information.

Last Sabbath I met with the church at Spring Grove, and after a free time in speaking to them we repaired to the water, where seven were buried in the likeness of Christ's death, and raised to walk in a new life. O that they may be overcomers. Dear brethren, I for one do think it is high time to draw nearer to God, and live more devoted to him.
