Baptism at Takoma Park

SABBATH, January 16, was a memorable day for the Takoma Park church. On that day twenty-two young persons and children, nearly all of whom were members of the Takoma Park Church-school, followed their Saviour in the solemn ordinance of baptism. The ordinance was administered by Prof. Frederick Griggs, following a brief, earnest exhortation by Elder A. G. Daniells. This occasion seemed like a foretaste of that time when “Elijah the prophet” would perform his last allotted work in turning “the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers,”—the closing work of the gospel.
