The last minister they had had affirmed that he stayed until not more than half a dozen people in the town would attend his preaching on the Sabbath; and although there was a fund for his support, and his salary was regularly paid, yet he could not think it his duty to spend his time in laboring in such a field.
El último ministro que habían tenido les había dicho que no permanecería en el pueblo si el número de asistentes a las reuniones del Sabbat bajaba de la media docena; y aunque había el fondo que garantizaba su sostén y que su salario le era pagado regularmente, no consideraba que fuera su deber invertir su tiempo laborando en aquel territorio.
