Uniopolis and Spencerville

On returning to Uniopolis I met Bro. T. F. Emans. We preached these discourses, and visited from house to house. One man and his wife embraced the truth, making fourteen in all. Regular meetings were appointed, a Sabbath-school was organized, and the tithing system adopted and a treasurer appointed. Some brethren who are running a saw-mill, since adopting the tithing system have commenced to keep new books, and say the Lord is the third partner.
I commenced meetings in Spencerville, Jan. 13. Bro. Emans has been with me part of the time. The interest is good, but opposition is bitter. The post-master, who is one of the leading merchants of the place, has embraced the truth. He has sent in his resignation of the office of post-master, giving his reason for doing so. Four others observed last Sabbath, and a number more are on the point of decision. Our publications have been sent here, and they have prepared the minds of some of the people to receive the truth.
