From Oklahoma to Mississippi IN harmony with the recommendation of the Southern Union Conference, I left Guthrie, Okla., February 3, to connect with the work in the Mississippi Conference. On the way my wife and I attended the Southern Union Conference at Keene, Tex. Here we enjoyed one of the best union conferences we ever attended. Everything went off smoothly, and the instruction given was most excellent and timely. It was good to be there. February 20 we left Keene for Vicksburg, Miss., to attend the Mississippi Conference, which was held February 27 to March 1. We had a very pleasant conference meeting at this place. The workers were all of good courage, and all left the conference with a strong determination to push the work forward. From Vicksburg we came to Jackson, where we are located at present. March 27, in company with Brother H. G. Miller, our missionary agent, I went to Natchez. Here we found a live little company who are just taking hold of the truth, mostly as a result of reading books that one of our canvassers sold to them. They are calling loudly for a tent-meeting, and we expect to answer their call soon. March 27-30 I visited the Hatley and Amory churches. On the Sabbath these two churches held their quarterly meeting together. We had an excellent service. The brethren and sisters are all of good courage. We are planning to run four tents in this conference this summer — two for the white people, and two for the colored. In harmony with a request from the president of the Tennessee River Conference, in a few days I shall go to Hurstburg, Tenn., to help in a meeting there. This is where my son and I held a tent-meeting last summer, and where the Tennessee River Conference and camp-meeting was held last year. They have a new church building at this place. We hope to have a good meeting, and to more fully establish the people in the truth. We earnestly request the prayers of the brethren and sisters to this end. W. S. LOWRY, Pres. Miss. Conf
