No Sabbath has 'passed without sev-

Sunday, September 6, was glorious.
Twenty persons knelt at the altar
during the day, and many of these
came through bright. At the Wed-

ing, five earnest souls prayed through,
one of these, a bright, intelligent
yourig preacher." Recently two preach-
ers have been sanctified, and one
