HUGHES SPRINGS.—Since my last report I have not held meetings regularly, as the farmers are very busy, but have begun meetings on Friday night and continued until Sunday night, visiting and giving Bible readings through the week. We have had some precious seasons of the outpouring of the Spirit. Eight dear souls have followed their Lord in baptism the past four Sabbaths. We are now raising the new tent, and will soon be giving the message to the people of the town. Those who have so liberally given to purchase a tent can now realize that they have an interest in this meeting, and we ask each one to pray earnestly for the success of the meeting at Hughes Springs. We think that a good, strong church can be organized here before the summer closes. Seven were keeping the Sabbath at this place when I came; now there are sixteen. I have found some prejudice, and a great deal of tobacco and snuff, with which to contend, but the Lord gives power to overcome. To him be all the praise! E. B. HOPKINS.
