BURLESON.—Since my last report from this place we have had a continually growing interest, and the entire country around has been deeply stirred. Fifteen adults have taken their stand on the Sabbath and kindred truths, and I have strong hopes of a few others, and shall continue the effort to that end. We have had Sabbath-school and social meetings for three Sabbaths, and last Sabbath there were sixty-three in the Sabbath-school. Sunday night, thirty-four acknowledged publicly that they were convinced we have the truth. Donations amounting to $23.75 have been received without taking up a single collection. Part of this was made up by the citizens and merchants on the streets without my knowledge. The very best class of citizens, business men, farmers, etc., have been our constant hearers, and most of those who have taken their stand are good, substantial people, able to help the cause.
Our Sabbath meetings have been most spiritual, the broken spirit and flowing tear indicating the thoroughness of the work the Lord was doing for these precious souls as they surrendered themselves to him, and testified of their love to God and their thankfulness for the new-found truth. Brother E. S. Seat, as tent master, and his wife, who have assisted in the music and visiting, have been of much help to me, as well as Brethren Haggard, Graves, and Seat, living four miles distant, who attended with their families quite regularly. They will share in the reward for the results obtained here. Pray for the work at this place. W. A. McCUTCHEN.
