Hancock, N. H.

By R. M. Kilgore

I HAVE been here one week, and have held meetings every night but one, in the town hall.

I am not encouraged much concerning the interest, and yet I shall do all I can to forward the work in this place. Those who attend listen attentively, but prejudice against the truth is strong, and unbelief is apparent. We have had it to meet in the public congregation. I shall remain here until I am satisfied that my duty is done.

We were at Marlow two Sabbaths since we left Rhode Island. The friends there are still holding on to the truth, and are growing in it, yet we hope to see them making more rapid strides toward higher attainments. Letters from Victor, Iowa, are affording us great encouragement. There is no decrease in their interest in the meetings there, and their neat and commodious meeting-house is just being completed. They now call for Bro. and sister White, or one of them, or Bro. Butler, to visit them and dedicate their house of worship, which they have almost built by their own efforts.

My family is with me, and we are now living in our own hired house. We ask the prayers of the people of God. R. M. KILGORE.
