Sister Goodnow writes from West Union, Iowa: I feel that I am a stranger in a strange land. I have often felt like sinking Peter, but the arm that was reached forth to him is always extended to me. Oh, if it was not for his loving kindness and long forbearance my feet would have still been in the miry clay. I fully believe the third angel's message is founded upon the rock, and when fully believed there is no room for fables. I verily feel it is founded upon the word of God, a most sure foundation. You can have some idea of my loneliness when I tell you I have never heard the message proclaimed. I have seen only one (Bro. Wilkins) in Iowa who is striving to keep all the commandments and the faith of Jesus; I also have the privilege of reading his paper, the Advent Review. I prize it above all other reading except the word of God.
