L E T T E R S.

“Then they that feared the Lord, spake often one to another.”
From Bro. Whitney.
DEAR BRO. WHITE: To the remnant scattered abroad I wish to say that my heart is with them to maintain the struggle until the victory is gained, and we reach the promised remaining rest. The cause seems to be gaining somewhat in this section, and the few who have remained true to the truth are being encouraged, feeling that the sound of rain is again to be heard within our borders.
I have felt the afflicting hand of my heavenly Father upon me for some time, for which I am thankful, however, for I trust that by it and the aid of his Spirit I have been able to see my condition, and to double my diligence in making my calling and election sure.
How we ought to rejoice on account of the long-suffering of God to us ward, and what an incentive it should be to duty. There are some who have embraced the truth here since Bro. Lawrence and myself visited them last winter, and others are becoming interested, and are inquiring, “What is truth?”
Lord revive thy work, is the prayer of your unworthy brother striving to overcome. S. B. WHITNEY. Malone, N. Y.
