Field Notes and Gleanings

AUGUST 7 three persons were baptized and received into the church at Keokuk, Iowa.
TEN persons were baptized recently at Logan, Utah, as the fruit of a series of meetings held there.
AT South Woodstock, Maine, Brother H. C. Giles recently baptized twelve persons. Nine have united with the church.
A REPORT from Wewoka, Okla., states that on Sabbath, August 8, five came into the church; one by letter and four by baptism.
BAPTISMAL services were held in the First Springfield (Ill.) church on Sabbath, August 15, at which time four candidates were baptized.
ON a recent Sunday four persons were buried by baptism with their Lord at Sickles, Mich. Others, it is expected, will be baptized soon.
FOUR persons from Tunnel City, Wis., were baptized recently at Sparta. These, with a sister from Tunnel City, joined the Sparta church.
A MOTHER who has known the truth all her life has recently been baptized and joined the church at Ann Arbor, Mich., and her two daughters are awaiting baptism.
SIX have already taken a stand for the truth at Langford, S. D., as a result of the meetings held there. One of these converts is planning to attend Union College this year.
BROTHER C. R. MURPHY, reporting from Waterbury, Conn., says: “Last Sabbath we had seventeen at our Sabbath meeting, nearly all of them keeping the Sabbath for the first time.”
A LETTER from Elder S. G. Huntington, of Utah, contains the following: “The interest here in Salt Lake City is rising, and I think will develop in the salvation of some souls. This morning I baptized one sister. Brother Nelson also baptized eight persons last week.”
ON the first Sabbath in August a church of twenty-eight members was organized at Furlong, Cal., a suburb of Los Angeles. Sister Jennie Ireland has been working in this locality for more than two years. A strong work has been built up there, and a neat and commodious chapel has been erected and dedicated.
THE following paragraph taken from a letter written by Elder H. H. Dexter, of the French mission, will be of interest: “Last week I visited eastern France on the frontier of Alsace-Lorraine. Here we have, in the city of Montbeliard, a company of fifteen earnest Sabbath-keepers. During my recent visit I baptized five converts, and received two more by vote. Four others are preparing for the ordinance.”
