Sutton.— I had the privilege of attending the Sabbath-school institute at Sutton, July 13 and 14. The attendance and interest were good. The quarterly service was also held and the ordinances were celebrated. Three persons united with the church, and one young man was baptized who did not unite with the church. A deacon was ordained, to take the place of Brother Israel Parker, who died a few weeks ago. The Sutton church now has a membership of over thirty.

Johnson and Barre.— Sabbath, July 20, I was with the friends in Johnson. Only a few were present, but the Spirit of the Lord was there. At the present writing we are holding some special meetings here in Barre, hoping thus to create an interest to hear the truth, before the camp-meeting. Pray for the work in this wicked city. J. W. Watt.
