Denison, Texas.

By Robert M. Kilgore

The interest here remains good, and is now more settled. Several are keeping the Sabbath. At our last Sabbath-school 82 were present, and their names enrolled.

The Methodist minister a week ago, took up the Sunday question in his pulpit. He took the ground that the law and Sabbath was kept from creation till the resurrection of Christ. But was then changed. I reviewed him on Monday night. Last night Rev. Kane, Baptist, from the same pulpit read a manuscript of a future tract upon the same subject. He denied that that Sabbath was a memorial of creation, but stated that it existed first, as, and was a memorial of, the giving of manna; that when Christ, the true bread, came down from Heaven, the type was next; and the antitype, the Christian Sabbath, took the place of the one given to the Jews. I review him to night. R. M. KILGORE.
