ISABELLA CO., MICHIGAN.

ONE week ago yesterday I reached the tent, which is five miles from Mt. Pleasant, the county seat of Isabella county. Bro. Kellogg had the tent up, and notwithstanding the very violent storms the night before, quite a number attended the service. The meetings have since continued with a growing interest. Yesterday at the close of the second sermon eighteen came forward for prayers, about one-half of whom were heads of families. Four of these parents took a stand for the present truth for the first time. This morning we took up the matter of building a meeting-house, and in a short time $880 was pledged; this sum will be raised to about $1000. Steps were taken to organize a legal society. Four united with the church, three of whom received baptism.
