Letters from Maine and Iowa
Sister S. E. A. Bogues writes from Camden, Me., Sept. 15th: "I feel very lonely at times, and miss the society of the people of God. But I look forward with sweet anticipation to the time when the saints shall meet in one general assembly to part no more. I hope I shall be among them, unworthy as I am. "While a pilgrim here I in sadness roam,
I will think of the shining band,
And the many joys I shall share with them,
In the home of the promised land."152The Report from Brn. Cornell and Hull, now in Knoxville, Iowa, is yet encouraging. The interest was still increasing when they last wrote. From two to four hundred persons had expressed by rising in meeting their conviction that the seventh day is and always was the only weekly Sabbath. Their last two letters have brought us 55 new subscribers for the REVIEW.
