Arkansas

By H. Clay Griffin

LONDON.—Since my return to this field another sister has stepped out upon the promises of God, and has begun to keep the Sabbath of the Lord. A brother who began the observance of the Sabbath about the first of February last, laid aside his tobacco after having used it for more than fifty-two years. His neighbors look upon it as a miracle, but he tells them that the Lord is able to keep him from evil. There are several others in the valley of decision; they are convinced that they should obey the commandments of God, but the tobacco habit has such a hold upon them that they think they can not give it up. This habit is one of the worst obstacles we have to contend with in the South, as men and women use it alike, with few exceptions.
Brother W. Bender and I expect to pitch a tent at this place next week, and begin the battle for the Lord. We would be pleased to have a goodly number of our English tracts and papers sent, prepaid, for free distribution. We shall probably be in London until the latter part of June. Pray for us and the work here. H. CLAY GRIFFIN.
