REPORT OF LABOR.

By E. L. Sanford

DANVILLE, RICHMOND, FREDERICKSBURG, ALEXANDRIA, VA.—At the General Conference it was recommended that I make Virginia my field of labor. Accordingly last April I left Alabama for that field. After visiting Danville and Richmond, Brother T. H. Painter and I held a tent-meeting at Fredericksburg, which resulted in removing prejudice. At first but few persons attended our meetings; but after the people became acquainted with us, we had good audiences. However, on account of fire, we were obliged to take our tent down, after which we went to Alexandria, to prepare for the camp-meeting. I hope the brethren will feel free to hold another series of meetings in Fredericksburg soon.
At Alexandria we held two short series of tent-meetings, and a small company was brought out, organized, and instructed in the things of God. Brother T. H. Painter assisted me in one tent-meeting, and Brother A. J. Strickland in the other. God gave the increase. To him be all the praise.
I am of good courage in the Lord. Pray for the work in this field. E. L. SANFORD.
