NEW CASTLE, CAL.

I REACHED Fairfield the 28th, where I remained four days. Two embraced the Sabbath who had never heard our people preach before. Have been here ten days encouraging the fifteen brothers and sisters of this place, who have covenanted together to keep the commandments of God. Last Sabbath I baptized seven, at which time the Spirit of God seemed especially near, as also during the celebration of the ordinances. A T. and M. Society of nine members has been organized. May 13, 1881. E. A. BRIGGS.
