LETTERS.

By C. E. Harris

"Then they that feared the Lord, spake often one to another."

From Sr. Harris,

DEAR BRETHREN AND SISTERS : With a glad and thankful heart I sit down to tell you what the Lord has done for me.

He has again raised me from a sick bed. Glory be to his great and glorious name. And he has set me free in Christ. With all my heart would I praise God that "Jesus died on Calvary's mountain long time ago, and salvation's rolling fountain now freely flows," and that the poorest and weakest and most wandering may have access to it.

Since the first of April I have been confined to my bed, most of the time unable to sit up to have it made, until one week ago it pleased the Lord to strengthen me so that I was enabled to leave my bed. I am now able to sit up nearly all day, and can work some. I earnestly desire to seek meekness. I can say in the language of another,

"Lord, in the strength of grace, With a glad heart and free, Myself, my residue of days, I consecrate to thee."

In hope of life, C. E. HARRIS. Lunenburg, Vt., Nov. 3, 1862.
