The Editor is sorry to have to say that the present series of this Magazine will close with the current year. Greatly increased press of work and a wider sphere of duties prevents him from any longer giving the necessary time to this Magazine. Indeed, already for the last few months he has had great difficulty in finding the needed leisure. The cessation of the Magazine involves also the dissolution of the Bible Student’s Class. It is needless to say how successful and deeply appreciated their labors have been.
As it is intended to give with the December number a complete index not only to the Bible Queries of this year, but also to those of the first half volume in 1881 There will be no space for the Bible Class subject. That already announced for next month therefore will close the series.
The Editor hopes to continue the “Young Believer,” and will answer a limited number of Bible Queries (as before) in it. He hopes in giving up this Magazine, to be able to devote more time and attention to the remaining one.
