words
of
encouragement
and
counsel
‘to
the
graduating
class
of
eight.
Af
ter
conferring
diplomas,
a
pleasant
lit-
tle
reception
was
given
Miss
Dr.
Beckner,
who
leaves
soon
to
take
up
work
in
another
part
of
the
field.
Many
of
the
patients
seemed
to
take
as
deep
an
interest
in
the
program
as
any,
and
it
was
indeed
one
of
interest.
I
was
pleased
to
find
the
sanitarium
so
full
that
I
had
to
sleep
in
Dr.
Nicola’s
office.
Elder
Wheeler
is
getting
hold
of
the
work
of
chaplain
there
nicely,
and
his
wife
is
also
giving
good
help
to
the
institution.
We
had
a
large
attendance
at
Bos-
ton,
and
Elder
Russell
reports
a
good
interest
and
attendance
at
Malden.
Brother
Utchmann
also
reported
a
good
interest
in
his
Sunday
night
meetings
at
Cambridge.

CITY
CHURCH

NUMBER
We
ask
our
brethren
of
the
GLEANER
family
to
rejoice
once
more
with
us.
Some
of
the
brethren
of
this
church
have
gone
out
in
accordance
with
the
command
of
the
Master
in
Matt.
28:19,
20,
and
the
Lord
has
been
faithful
to
his
promise
contained
therein.
Brother
E.
M.
Kirby,
who
is
a
native
of
Walker
Valley,
Ulster
County,
New
York,
and
who
is
very
anxious
that
his
friends
and
relatives
there
should
hear
the
last
message
to
the
world,
purchased
and
fitted
out,
at
his
own
expense,
a
thirty-by-sixty-
foot
tent,
which
was
taken
charge
of
by
Brother
Henry
Tonjes
as
tentmas-
ter.
Brother
J.
J.
Kennedy,
one
of
the
elders
of
our
church,
during
his
summer
vacation
went
there
to
do
the
preaching
for
two
weeks,
under
the
guidance
of
the
Holy
Spirit,
and
tak-
ing
with
him
the
good
wishes
and
prayers
of
the
Lord's
people.
The
Lord
blessed
the
effort
to
his
honor
and
glory
by
convincing
about
thirteen
souls
of
the
truth
of
this
message,
five
ATLANTIC
UNION
GLEANER
of
whom
were
baptized;
and
a
little
company
was
formed
who
are
keeping
the
true
Sabbath
of
the
Lord,
and
who
send
encouraging
letters
to
the
brethren
from
time
to
time,
which
are
gratefully
received
and
answered.
These
three
brethren
are
well
satis-
fied
with
their
effort,
as
they
consider
those
five
souls
worth
much
more
than
the
money,
time,
and
energy
expended
on
them,
especially
Brother
Kirby,
who
had
the
joy
of
seeing
his
wife
baptized,
which
more
than
repays
him
for
his
part
in
the
work.
We
ask
the
prayers
of
our
brethren
in
the
Atlantic
Union
Conference
that
this
little
company
may
prove
faithful
to
the
end,
and
that
we
shall
soon
all
be
gathered
home,
when
Jesus
comes
to
claim
his
own.
Brother
Tonjes
sold
many
of
our
publications,
mostly
our
large
books
and
quite
a
number
of
“
His
Glorious
Appearing,”
to
the
amount
of
about
twenty-five
dollars,
One
wealthy
cigar
manufacturer
of
this
city,
who
was
spending
his
summer
vacation
there,
attended
the
meetings
nearly
every
night,
and
was
so
inter-
ested
that
he
purchased
a
whole
set
of
our
leading
books,
and,
with
many
others,
gave
his
name
and
address
to
the
brethren,
asking
them
to
notify
him
when
the
meetings
commenced
in
this
city.
The
brethren
are
also
pleased
to
be
able
to
report
that,
during
the
rain
and
wind
storm
about
the
middle
of
September,
when
most
of
the
tents
in
this
conference
were
blown
down,
and
much
damage
was
done
to
prop-
erty
in
their
immediate
vicinity,
the
wind
blowing
at
about
sixty
miles
an
hour,
the
angel
of
the
Lord
faithfully
watched
over
their
tent,
to
the
extent
that
not
one
stake
was
shaken;
al-
though
to
the
finite
eye
it
had
no
pro-
tection
or
shelter
on
any
side.
Praise
the
Lord
for
all
his
goodness
to
the
children
of
men!
So
the
good
work
is
going
on;
and
we
are
satisfied
that
every
humble
ef-
fort
put
forth
in
the
name
of
the
Lord
man,
a
will
bear
fruit
to
his
honor
and
glory.
We
ask
the
prayers
of
the
Lord’s
peo-
ple
everywhere,
that
we
in
this
great,
wicked
city
may
all
prove
faithful
to
his
trust,
and
let
his
light
so
shine
before
men
that
they
may
see
our
good
works
and
glorify
our
Father
in
heaven.
