Report from Bro. Byington.
By John Byington
I WROTE last from Watrousville, Tuscola Co., Oct. 9. The 10th I came to Centerville, and had meetings every evening through the week. I was called back to Watrousville on the Sabbath to attend the funeral of a daughter of Bro. and Sr. Wilbur. I spoke on the occasion to an attentive congregation, of the blessed hope of immortality through Christ, which at the resurrection of the just, would bring our dear ones from the land of the enemy. I returned the same evening to Centerville, and attended the ordinances in that church for the first time. We had one meeting on first-day, then came to Wahjamega where we had an interesting interview in the evening with Bro. and Sr. Vangieson, and also a friend who was inquiring after truth. They have one family near them who have commenced keeping the Sabbath. I hope they will meet for worship on the Lord's day. We had meeting on Tuesday evening in Vassar for the last time at present. Wednesday I came to Tuscola Village, where I had six meetings, organized a church of nineteen members. Three were baptized. Bro. John Miller was chosen elder. Pray for him. My visit to Tuscola Co., has been to me an interesting one. I have formed an acquaintance in the truth with many dear friends that I never saw before. May we finally meet where there will be no more curse, but rest for the weary. J. BYINGTON.
