Barbados

By A. J. Haysmer

SPEIGHTS TOWN.—We had our conference committee meeting January 14-16. The auditing work was attended to, and plans were laid for the work for the next six months. We expect to conduct tent efforts in Barbados, Georgetown, Demerara, Grenada, and in the country of Antigua, and institutes in Barbados, Demerara, and Trinidad. In these the whole work will be considered. Brother Enoch will assist in Demerara, and I will attend the institute in Trinidad.

The reports show that there have been 1,975 sermons preached, 1,669 Bible readings held, 1,339 other meetings, 6,870 visits made, and 113 persons baptized, in our conference in 1904.

Our work here in Speights Town is moving slowly, through much opposition. About twelve are keeping the Sabbath, and I believe a good work will be done. But we must stand by it, and push out into the country parts. We have organized a Sabbath-school with about twenty members, and we believe there will be a steady growth.
