CLYDE, MICHIGAN.

By H. M. Kenyon

HAVE just closed a ten-days' discussion at this place with Eld. Scott, on the Sabbath and law, and the state of the dead. The weakness of the positions taken by Eld. S. have greatly strengthened those who have recently embraced the truth here. The blessing of the Lord was with us Sabbath, May 22d. A church was organized with sixteen members; others will unite with them soon. On Sunday, twelve persons, all heads of families, were baptized in a beautiful lake six miles from the place of meeting. The baptismal scene was an impressive one. The concourse of people was large, and the best of order prevailed. At the close of the baptism we knelt at the water's edge, and an elder and a deacon were ordained. A Sabbath-school was fully organized, with a membership of forty. H. M. KENYON.
