delightful At the conclusion of every service the
inquiring were requested to remain that they might
by personal conversation receive instruction and
encouragement These interviews have been
blessed of God, and We are happy to state, that
though the public services have closed, we are
still met by, and are endeavoring to answer, the
anxious inquiry, :" What must | do to be saved 2"
t1ay the interest increase until this the great ques
