SOUTHERN MICH.

By John Byington

About every evening last week, I held meetings in Otsego in the school-house near sister Aaron Hilliard’s. Some in the district were anxious to hear. Bro. Hilliard (who died last August) had appointed a meeting to talk present truth to his neighbors, but was taken sick and could not fill the appointment. By request I met with them. There was a good attendance of interested hearers through the week. We trust that some may obey the truth.
In connection with these meetings I spent two Sabbaths with the church in Otsego. They have a weekly prayer-meeting for the especial benefit of the youth and children who started to seek the Lord when Bro. Canright was with them. Sister Robinson of this church buried her husband last Sabbath. This sister, though alone in the family, has stood firm in the truth. May her afflictions all work for her good. How dear to us are our friends that we lay in the grave!
