Letters.

“Then they that feared the Lord, spake often one to another.”
This department of the paper is designed for the brethren and sisters to freely and fully communicate with each other respecting their hopes and determinations, conflicts and victories, attainments and desires, in the heavenly journey. Then they, says the prophet, that feared the Lord spake often one to another. We believe emphatically that we are living in that time. Therefore seek first a living experience and then record it, carefully and prayerfully, for the comfort and encouragement of the other members of the household of faith. Let this department be well filled with lively testimonies of the goodness of God, and the value of his truth.

From Bro. Shireman.

BRO. WHITE : Our quarterly meeting has closed. We had a very good time. Brethren and sisters were here from Waukon. We thank the Lord that they were permitted to come down here. We feel much strengthened by it. May the Lord help us to appreciate such blessings, and to remember those dear brethren and sisters.
Bro. Brinkerhoff was here and spoke to us five times—besides which, we had social meetings. We all felt to praise the Lord for the privilege of hearing him. We think the church in this place are all striving to keep the commandment of God and the faith of Jesus. We hope it will not be long before we can have more preaching. I believe it would do much good. A few are interested. Yours in love, D. T. SHIREMAN.
