NEBRASKA

By Daniel Nettleton

Albion, etc.—For the last four weeks I have been laboring with those who embraced the truth during the winter through the efforts of Bro. Starr and myself.

March 10 to 20 I was with the little company at Albion. We held five meetings, in which we enjoyed much of the blessing of God. The friends here are earnest in the missionary work, by which others are being interested. Two more have taken a stand for the truth.

From Albion I went to Halifax, where I remained one week, speaking five times on the practical workings of the truth. An effort was made in favor of the Sabbath-school, and a new interest was taken in this branch of the work. There are now twenty Sabbath-keepers here. The brethren were strengthened and encouraged.

March 29, I met with the company at El Dorado. The Lord blessed us.

April 5 and 6, I attended the quarterly meeting at Raeville. This was a precious season to us. Brethren and sisters from abroad were with us. Two precious souls were buried with their Lord in baptism, and two united with the church by letter. This church was organized nine months ago with a membership of thirteen, and now has a membership of thirty-one. When the roll was called, every member was present, and responded. This church is growing in grace, and in the knowledge of the truth. Our meetings were held in their new meeting-house. May the dear Lord keep this little company from falling, and preserve them all unto his heavenly kingdom.

My address, for the present, is Tekamah, Burt Co., Neb. DANIEL NETTLETON.
