Spring Arbor.—The quarterly meeting of the church at this place, April 5 and 6, was an occasion of much interest, the attendance, both of our own people and others, being quite large. The church is comparatively young in the truth, and there is considerable interest in the community to hear; and as the meetings were held over Sabbath and first-day, I spoke twice each day to large and attentive congregations. A goodly proportion of the church participated in the celebration of the ordinances.
W. C. GAGE.
Convis.—According to appointments, we met with this church, Sabbath, April 5. Spoke from Matt. 24.
Immediately after the morning service, the names of all the members were called, and those present responded by telling what the Lord had done for them. After an intermission of fifteen minutes, we met, and followed the instructions of our blessed Master as recorded in John 13: 5, 14, 15; Luke 22: 19, 20.
This was the most solemn meeting we ever attended. New vows were made by nearly all present to live nearer the Lord. May the Lord help us to keep our vows.
B. F. RICHARDS.
