Texas Tent.

By R. M. Kilgore

The meetings at Cleburne are still progressing, and the interest is increasing. Numbers are coming regularly five and six miles, and a few have come twelve miles. Elder Philips (Disciple) from Cado, has spoken in the tent. According to his view, the ten commandments are abolished.
Dr. Johnson (Cumberland Presbyterian) from Paris, Texas, indorsed him. I shall review their position.
Several are keeping the Sabbath. We are not able to tell the number, as we are hearing of new ones every day. We had our first Sabbath meeting last Sabbath. About two hundred and fifty were present. We are receiving calls constantly from those who are inquiring the way, and we are visiting from house to house. Brother S. H. King is now with me, and will help in this branch of the work. We are of good courage in the Lord.
