Extracts from Letters.

Sister M. Wells writes from Clarendon, Mich.: Acting under the suggestion given in No. 23, present Vol. of the Review. I will say I have had no opportunity of getting any new subscribers for the Review as yet. But feeling as though I must do something in so good a cause and help spread the light on present truth, I will have the Review sent to a couple of persons, who, I think possess investigating minds, trusting they will search to see whether these things are so.

God speed our little paper on its mission of mercy and love, and may it herald forth the truths of the third angel's message of Rev. xiv, until all the honest in heart are sealed, and prepared to escape those things that are so soon coming upon the earth.

Bro. A. H. Pervorse writes from Maple Rapids, Mich.: It has been deeply impressed upon my mind for some time to write concerning the state of feeling in and around Maple Rapids. There are some inquiring after the Sabbath and hope of the gospel. Some talk with me about our faith and doctrine. I give them all the information that I am capable of giving, then I give them my books to read for themselves. My prayer is that God will in his providence send some of the messengers this way. I think there could be a good work done here. I am here alone. I hope that Bro. Frisbie, or some other of the messengers, will come to this place. I would say that there is a large hall that can be had to labor in.

Bro. A. Worster writes from North Liberty, Ind.: We are still trying to keep the commandments, that we may have a right to the tree of life, and enter through the gates into the city. We are still striving to overcome and gain the victory over the beast, and the number of his name. We long for the time to come when we shall have preaching here again. We hail the weekly visits of the Review, and look with anxiety for an appointment for another quarterly meeting. Pray for us, that we may gain the victory, immortality, and eternal life.
