By D. T. Fero

Ellicottsville, May 28.—Sabbath, April 24, I met the East Otto church in quarterly meeting at Ellicottsville. This was a postponed meeting; and after interesting Sabbath services, it was decided to postpone it for a second time, when there would be opportunity for baptism and other work which could not be attended to at this time. The week following I attended the State meeting and class in elocution at Wellsville.

May 8, 9, I was with the church at Lindley, Steuben Co. Found the friends here somewhat discouraged, but holding on to the truth. We have reason to believe that the meeting accomplished much good. The brethren seemed encouraged. Nearly all signed the tithing pledge, four subscriptions for the REVIEW were taken, and some books were sold. I was especially rejoiced at meeting Bro. Henry Walker and wife at this meeting, and seeing them advance by pledging themselves to fully obey the truth. We have been very anxious that this dear family should be where they could use their influence in the cause of God, and receive his blessing. We had the evidence that God loves them, and is willing to bless them and all his people in that place, if they put their whole trust in him.

I am now at Ellicottsville, arranging for tent and other labor. D. T. FERO.
