Tipton, Iowa.

By J. Dorcas

I AM happy to say that our meeting at Oxford was one of much encouragement to us all. We had a good representation from abroad. Brn. Mitchell and Shireman gave six discourses, with manifest demonstration of the Spirit in each discourse. In short, we had an excellent meeting. Here, some seven had recently come out on the Sabbath, and at this meeting a church was organized consisting of ten members, Bro. George Field being appointed leader, and Bro. H. Tanner, clerk. Systematic Benevolence amounts to $86.00 per annum. We are confident that the Lord will add others to this number soon. Prospects are brightening at other points. The Lord is blessing our ministering brethren with courage, strength, and heavenly grace, for which we thank his holy name. J. DORCAS.
