EVENINGS of Oct. 5 and 6, held two meetings at Jamestown, Ottawa Co., where I held meetings last spring. Here is one sister keeping the Sabbath, as the result of these meetings, and others are satisfied in regard to the truth, but for different reasons, do not as yet step out upon it.
Oct. 7, held two meetings with the brethren at Gaines, Kent Co. They are here united and making some advancement in the work. The 9th, held two meetings at Leighton, Allegan Co. The 29th and 30th, by request, attended the quarterly meeting at Potterville. Brethren and sisters were present from Charlotte and Oneida. Had a good meeting. The Spirit of the Lord was present, and all seemed determined, to make an advance step in the work.
Nov. 15, left home to join Bro. Lamson in St. Clair Co. The 18th and 19th, accompanied Bro. L. to his appointment at Greenwood. Here are seven families keeping the Sabbath, the result of Bro. L.'s labors the past summer. They all appear firm and decided in the truth. We returned to Memphis in time to hear two interesting discourses from Bro. Van Horn. The 24th and 25th, with Bro. L., at Smith's Creek. Here Bro. L. has labored for several weeks. Quite an interest has been awakened, and several are keeping the Sabbath, and others are deeply interested.
Considering it not best for Bro. L. and myself to labor together, in company with Bro. Wakeling I went to Lakeport, twenty-five miles north of Memphis. Commenced meetings Nov. 30. Held meetings as long as the people would come out to hear. It seems to be a very unfavorable time to hold meetings in this place at present, it being very near the lumber district. The recent fires are the cause of extensive lumbering, so that many are away from home, or preparing to go soon. I left for home Dec. 13, feeling clear that I had tried to do my duty at least.
Sabbath, Dec. 16, was with the brethren at Monterey. Evening after the Sabbath, re-organized our Sabbath-school. A good interestwas manifest in this work. The brethren here have recently organized a tract society. We hope for better times in Monterey. I commence meetings soon at Hamilton, in this county. I earnestly desire heavenly wisdom, to guide me in this work.
