Sabbath Opposition and Meetings at Columbus Hill
shown all the way along, notwithstanding the bad weather. Opposition is manifesting itself since the Sabbath question came to the surface. The people have sent for two ministers, a Methodist Episcopal and a Baptist, to overthrow the Sabbath of the Lord. This is an old field, with a heavy “Crisis” influence, which has poisoned many minds. But the darkness of error begins to disappear before the light of divine truth. Our trust is in God. We earnestly desire the prayers of all the dear saints. MILTON C. WILCOX. HENRY H. WILCOX. Columbus Hill.—Meetings have continued at this place since Oct. 3, though with some interruption on account of bad weather and roads. The interest has been good, and quite a number have acknowledged the truth. Three have decided to obey, and there are others for whom we hope. Satan magnifies difficulties, eclipses the reward,—the crown that is to be won by bearing the cross,—and the power of tradition holds some. May God help them to feel the force of truth and the importance of rendering strict obedience to all his commandments. Have obtained two subscribers for REVIEW, three for Signs, and two for Good Health, and have sold several dollars’ worth of books. Bro. Whitney left me about the 1st of November. We are hoping for his return, and many express a wish to that effect. J. Q. FOY.
