Report from Bro. Sanborn.
By Isaac Sanborn
BRO. WHITE : I left home the 19th of October, and came to Brodtville, Grant Co., Wis., to attend the discussion between Eld. Baughman, Methodist, and Bro. L. G. Bostwick, where they had previously held the discussion for three evenings, then Mr. Baughman adjourned it to the 23d of October, at which time, however, he did not appear, and the general decision of the people was, that he did not venture to renew the contest for fear of his case. There are now ten or eleven Sabbath-keepers at Brodtville. Two weeks ago I came here, just as Bro. Bostwick had closed a series of lectures of four weeks, having had large congregations, with good interest. On account of a heavy snow storm, the first week I came, I have preached but few times, and yet about fifteen have decided to keep the Sabbath, while others are deciding, and some are fighting against it, and the dragon carries on the war against the “remnant of the woman’s seed who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” Rev. xii, 17. As I find great interest in other neighborhoods, I expect to remain here several weeks longer. I hope to have the prayers of all the faithful, that God may establish many of the people here in the third angel’s message, that they may be sealed with his people, and stand at last with the Lamb on Mount Zion. Rev. xiv, 1. Tifton, Grant Co., Wis., Nov. 17, 1865.
