1. Bible Examiner 1872-3.

3. Zion's Day Star / Day Star. We only have one issue.
4. We only have one issue of the semi-monthly edition of Herald of the Morning (June 15, 1878). We need the other issues.
5. Resitution, (Indiana) the issues for 1876-1881. Any.
6. Our Rest and Signs of the Times, also known as Our Rest: Devoted to the Subject of Christ's Second Coming and the Preparation of the Church for That Event. Issues from 1876-1882 are prime interest. Any issue will interest us. Published in Chicago.

14. Meyer's Atonement. 1885 we think.
15. Newspaper articles that mention local "millennial dawn" meetings published before 1890.
16. A better copy of the Arp Tract. Black and white scan is okay. Our copy is really stained. It does not show up well. We want to use part of it in an illustrtion.
17. Any photograph of an early Watch Tower adherent, preferably from before 1900.
18. The address in Pittsburgh to which the Second Adventist meetings were moved.
20. Has anyone looked through the Herald of Life for references to Russell or the Allegheny Sceond Adventists? That would be issues from 1869-1882.
21. Solid information on the Florida land sales in the 1880's.
22. There are a number of unpublished local history manuscrips detailing the early history of Watch Tower and Second Adventist congregations. We have three of those, and they are marginally helpful. Anyone have any of these? If they touch on the 19th Century at all, they might be helpful.

24. Photo of John Corbin Sunderlin.
25. Records of Clowes heresy trial.
26. Records of Peyton's heresy trial.

Several scanned Herald of the Morning issues can be found at the Internet Archive.
At http://www.archive.org/
just search for Herald of the Morning
It also has a text version published by the bible students.
The issues we need are the semi-monthly issues. they're not included in the archives.org collection.
Re the Herald of Life:
About 30 years ago, I did look carefully through the Herald of Life during that time, to find mention of Russell or the Adventist congregation, but I do not recall now that I found anything. Another researcher had said that he had found mention of JL Russell in the Herald of Life.
There is a series of articles in 1869 on the Seed of Abraham, which gives age-to-come views. In one place Russell says that in 1869 he came to understand the Seed of Abraham being Christ Head and Body. It is found in the booklet on the Covenants.
