BAKER’S MOUNTAIN.—Following the erection of our school and meeting-house at this place a church of eleven members was organized April 4. Last Sabbath we had our first baptism, when three of our dear children witnessed for their Lord in the waters of the beautiful Henry River. We are now busily engaged in the erection of a good fourteen-room house to be used as headquarters for our work, and in connection with the school.
We are desirous of obtaining a small printing outfit to be used as an aid to our school, and would be pleased to correspond with any one having such a plant to dispose of, or who would like to help us secure one.
We have not yet heard from that good brother who was going to donate an organ for our school building. Won’t he please write soon? Nor have we yet given up our sanitarium work in North Carolina. We have to offer any one who will help us to erect an institution, a tract of about twenty acres of land, two acres of peaches, one of apples, pine groves, pastures, and fields. A beautiful situation, with charming scenery, pure water, a wholesome climate, and a crying need.
“Ebenezer,” hitherto hath the Lord helped us, and “Jehovah Jireh,” the Lord will provide, are two precious words that give us courage to press on in the good work. My address is Baker’s Mountain, Route 5, Hickory, N. C.
