Obituary of Lizzie Resigguie

By J. E. Klase

Died, in Monroe, Green Co., Wis., April 16, 1876, our dear sister, Lizzie, wife of David Resigguie, aged twenty-nine years. She, with her companion, embraced the Sabbath two years ago, and she left her dying testimony in favor of the truth she professed. Sister R. suffered much, but we believe she sleeps in Jesus. She exhorted her friends to meet her in the kingdom. May the Lord bless her afflicted husband and little boy, and when Jesus comes to make up his jewels may they be found among them. Very appropriate remarks at the funeral by C. W. Olds. J. E. Klase.

Death of George E. Barton

By H. M. Wilkinson

DIED, in Nelson, N. H., May 1, 1876, of malignant scarlet fever, George E., only remaining child of Edmund and Sarah P. Barton, aged two years, three months, and two days. He was a very interesting child, and the sunshine of his parents' home. We have laid him down to rest beside his little sister whom he loved so well, to await the coming of the Lifegiver. May the bereaved parents be sustained in their affliction, and both be led to prepare for a happy reunion on the resurrection morning. H. M. WILKINSON.

IOWA

By J. H. Morrison

I went to Bradford, Iowa, and remained for three weeks, holding in all thirty-seven meetings. I found this once happy little church sadly confused by the age-to-come-ists, and having all confidence that it is the truth of God.

When the advocates of this doctrine are asked to set forth the pillars of their faith, why do they not appeal to some of the well-defined chains of prophecy, reaching from some specified point in the past into the future age? It is because these prophecies say nothing in its favor. It seems to me, if this doctrine was truth it would be worthy of a place in the prophetic chain. Take up these chains, link by link, and the very link that should introduce that age as a day of light and glory to the world is declared to be a day of darkness and gloominess.

This little company, after contesting the point, were forced, as honest seekers after truth, to renounce the age-to-come-ism as a great error and deception of Satan.

One aged sister, an early Sabbath-keeper, who has been its strong advocate, was compelled to admit the truthfulness of the arguments against it. I hope this experience may serve as a safeguard to this sister in the future; and also open the eyes of this good sister, both to the truth and to the dividing and distracting influence of this fascinating error. See Rom. 16:17.

Since the camp-meeting, I have visited Newton, Iowa, where I had some freedom in speaking the word. We had a good meeting and the presence of nearly all the brethren, and, above all, the presence of God. A deacon was ordained, the ordinances were administered, and six baptized were taken into the church.

WILMINGTON, DEL.

By G. S. Honeywell

I HAVE distributed about 30,000 pages of tracts and books. Some of them have been loaned and read many times. Some I have sold. A great number have embraced the health reform; and quite a number are convinced upon the leading points of present truth, and are only waiting for an opportunity by some minister to get them together.

I have obtained somewhere from twenty to thirty subscribers to our periodicals; have received about the same number of letters; and have visited about five hundred families.

This is a good field for missionary work. I wish I could have the assistance of some one of our brethren whose heart is in the work.

I have a plan by which I think a great amount of good may be done. It is to establish a hygienic store, and instruct the people in health reform and kindred truths. Some one who is a good business man would find a good opening here. Five or six hundred dollars in cash would be needed.

By Uriah Smith

Seventeenfold.

This is a large increase to take place in a few years, yet the cause of present truth presents, in some respects, an increase thus marvelous. It is not a great length of time since the first tent was put into the field. And we well remember how it was thought a few years ago, when three tents were put into operation in different localities, that a pretty strong force was enlisted to carry on this work. But the present year we have, not three only, but some fifty tents, mostly sixty feet in diameter, doing service in the good cause. Brethren, remember in fervent, effectual prayer those who are laboring with the tents this season. Sister White, on the Minnesota camp-ground spoke of the duty of the church in this respect, and testified that the laborers would accomplish double the good that they otherwise would, if the church sustained them as they should, by earnest prayer to God. Remember this, and let not any measures of success be withheld by our unfaithfulness.

Vermont, Attention!

By H. Barrows; M. E. Kellogg; E. R. Bancroft

The Vermont Camp-Meeting will be held in a beautiful grove three-fourths of a mile north of Milton Station, on the Vermont Central R. R. Mail and accommodation trains will stop at the ground. Free return tickets will be furnished on the ground to all who pay full fare one way on the Vermont Central. Expect the same on the South-Eastern R. R. It will be necessary for those bringing tents to bring tent poles, as none can be obtained on the ground.

Illinois Camp-Meeting.

By G. W. Colcord

This meeting will, no providence preventing, be held on the Methodist Camp-ground, situated about midway between Waldron and the city of Kankakee, Kankakee Co., Sept. 21-23. The grounds include twenty acres, fenced and divided into two lots. Besides being beautifully located on the Kankakee River, this encampment is furnished with two or three wells.

A house of worship has been erected for use in inclement weather; also a number of dwelling houses, furnished with suitable rooms for campers. Good shade for horses, as well as on the ground for worship. There is a large ice-house near. Good roads from depots. Hay, straw and provisions will be furnished in abundance. We shall do all in our power to make this place suitable for the purpose for which it has been secured.

Now, brethren and sisters of Illinois, we are very desirous that you should begin now to prepare to come to this meeting. Lay aside your car fare, and come. Or do as our brethren and sisters in Kansas do: Come two or three hundred miles by private conveyance; but, come. More in due time. G. W. COLCORD. *

To the S. B. Treasurers of Mo.

By Wm. Evans

The first of July closes the second quarter of 1876. Before you see this, that time will have passed. If you have not already received the Systematic Benevolence for the past quarter, and forwarded it to the treasurer and a report of the same to the secretary, I would call your attention to your duty in that matter.

I would also suggest that all persons sending money to the treasurer do so either by draft, post-office order, or registered letter; the last way is perhaps the best, as the person sending gets a receipt by which he knows if the letter is received. I would also insist that all money sent to the treasurer be reported to the Conference secretary. It can be done easily by postal card, and it assists very much in preventing mistakes. Remember that J. A. O’Bryan, Holden, Johnson Co., is treasurer, and D. C. Hunter, Nevada, Vernon Co., is secretary.

WM. EVANS.

Wanted.

By Wm. Evans

THE MO. State Secretary wants the name and post-office address of every one of our church officers immediately. Will each elder, leader, deacon, clerk and treasurer in this Conference see that his name and address is sent at once to D. C. Hunter, Nevada, Vernon Co., Mo., Wm. EVANS, Pres.

Tract Work in Illinois.

By F. M. T. Simonson

As the last quarterly meeting was held only two months ago, and as Bro. Colcord is now engaged in tent labor, he desires me to request each district to retain all reports of work done since April 16, and embody them in the report to be sent to the annual meeting of the Society, at the time of the Conference, Sept. 22, 1876.

F. M. T. Simonson, Sec.

Hospitality for Traveling Adventists

By George A. King

S. D. ADVENTISTS, especially ministers, who may be traveling on the Grand Trunk R. R., or the Sarnia branch of the Great Western, are requested to stop over the Sabbath at Camlachie, Ontario. Should any call on us, please let us know when to expect you. Address,

GEO. A. KING, Camlachie P. O., Ontario.

The Virtues of Patience

PATIENCE governs the flesh, strengthens the spirit, sweetens the temper, stifles anger, extinguishes envy, subdues pride; she bridles the tongue, restrains the hand, tramples upon temptations, endures persecution, consummates martyrdom; she makes us humble in prosperity, cheerful in adversity, unmoved by calumny and reproach; she teaches us to forgive those who have injured us, and to be first in asking forgiveness of those whom we have injured.
