SINCE my last report, I have held several meetings in Nashville, Barton Co., Mo., with some success. Four willing subjects were buried, with their Lord in baptism. Considerable opposition has been manifested. Eld. Starks, Disciple, labored for nearly four weeks in Nashville, doing all he could to annihilate the little flock of Sabbath-keepers there; but he entirely failed. I have replied to some of his discourses. Expect to organize a church there sometime this summer.
Have just closed our quarterly meeting in Avilla, Jasper Co., Mo. There were nine added to the church. Six were baptized. May the Lord continue to add to the church such as shall be saved. I expect, Providence permitting, to start to Seneca, to hold some meetings about the 20th of May. I am still determined to labor on in the good Master's cause, as the way opens.
