GEORGIA

By C. O. Taylor

On my way to Reynolds, Taylor Co., I spent a few days in the northern part of Brooks Co. One family commenced to keep the Sabbath, and three persons were baptized.

I also visited Worth and Dodge counties. In Worth Co. some have been keeping the Sabbath for a year; others have promised to keep it. In Dodge Co. I found a welcome at the home of J. H. Whitsett. He takes the Signs and Good Health, and his wife is keeping the Sabbath. He cleared and seated a new gin-house for me to preach in. He also told his hired help (six in number) that they need not work on Saturday. Mr. W. has never made a profession of religion, but he indorses our views on the Sabbath and some other subjects.

In Perry I found Bro. Killen and family strong in the truth. He has had some difficulty to get the church of which he was a member to take action in his case. They have at last passed a resolution to withdraw church fellowship from him, but not Christian fellowship. By request, I spoke in the court-house on the atonement.

On reaching home I found the brethren firm in the truth, and the outside interest unabated.
