The Work in North Carolina
Brother and Sister D. T. Shireman write from Hildebran, N. C.:—
“THE school work seems to be our work at the present time. Our whole hearts are in it, and we are willing to do all we can to help the young among us. This brings heavy responsibilities upon us in the closing years of our life. We have spent more than forty-three years in doing what we could to help our fellow men near our home in the different places in which we have lived. We see so much to be done here, and have so little with which to do, that it makes us heartsick; but we do feel thankful to God, and to the kind friends who have given help in our time of need, and also to the General Conference, for their liberality to us. We believe the Lord will bless them for their thoughtful consideration. We need the prayers and counsel of all who are interested in our work here in North Carolina. We shall be glad to hear from our old friends at any time, and any favor sent us to help build up this work will be carefully used.”
