Hixton, Jackson Co., May 18, 1873

By J. C. Nielson; O. A. Olson

Wisconsin.

April 17, left home and attended meetings at Neenah. Remained there till the 20th. Held six meetings, then came on to Ashwaubenon, where I remained until the 2d of May, working and holding meetings. Then, in company with Bro. Nielson, went to New Denmark. Held meetings there Sabbath and Sunday.

May 7, we commenced meetings again at Ashwaubenon, and continued till the 13th. These meetings were characterized by the blessing of God and the presence of his Spirit. Four were baptized, and two united with the church, which now numbers eighteen. The brethren at New Denmark united with them. Just one year ago, we commenced meetings there, when there were none that kept God's Sabbath. The Lord has owned and blessed his truth, and when on the Sabbath we celebrated the ordinances of the Lord's house, just one year from the first Sabbath meeting held in the place, we could but rejoice for what the Lord has done for us; and we all shared his blessing in a large measure.

Systematic Benevolence was arranged for the coming year, and $90.00 was voted to the Conference. The church decided to unite with the Conference.
