To the Brethren and Sisters in the New England Conference.

By S. A. Whittier

The General Conference has sent Elds. Camden and Goodrich to assist in the work in this Conference. They are now laboring in our midst, and the Spirit of the living God has already greatly blessed their efforts. In the past, while we have had so little ministerial help in this Conference, our brethren and sisters have scattered the seeds of truth by means of publications, which have gone forth in abundance, and now the field seems to be all ripe for the harvest. The providence of God has sent these brethren to us, and shall we not, one and all, unite with them to carry forward the work to a glorious reward in the kingdom of heaven?
It is their intention to visit as far as possible every company or family of Sabbath-keepers in the Conference. To aid in this work we are desirous of having a complete list of the Sabbath-keepers in the Conference; and to this end have already obtained a list of the church members; but as there are many scattered ones who do not belong to the church, we would call upon the brethren and sisters, if they know of any such, to send their names and addresses to me at South Lancaster, Mass., as soon as convenient.
I would also call the attention of the church clerks to the appeal by the President of the General Conference (published in the REVIEW of Jan. 20), in behalf of correct and complete reports of the State Conference secretary. We have had the same difficulty in this Conference, and hope that from this time the reports will be promptly and properly made.
