Reports from the Field.
By John L. Wood
THE cause of "present truth" in this county is still progressing, for which we feel to thank the Lord, and take courage. Several took a stand on the truth while I had the tent in Westminster. A large amount of unreasonable prejudice exists against the truth in this part of the country; but here, as in most places, as the gathering message goes forth, it gathers the most conscientious and substantial people of the community; and as these souls embracing the truth live it out, it produces an argument that none are able to meet. Thus we read, "For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men." 1 Pet. 2: 15. The Lord has blessed our labors and we now have quite a company who meet to worship on the true Sabbath. Brother and sister A. F. Brown, who were among the first to obey the truth on this coast, over ten years ago, have been a great help in getting the work started in this section; and for their faithfulness they now have the pleasure of seeing all their children, who are old enough, walking in the light of the message. I have put away the tent, and will now work in school-houses as the way opens until tent season again. Last Sabbath was a good day for us; while four willing souls followed their Lord in baptism the Spirit of God was in our midst. Anaheim, Nov. 10. J. L. Wood.
