Report from Oregon.

By H. W. Reed

Currinsville.—I came to this place, and held the first meeting Wednesday evening, April 1. A goodly number were in attendance, and quite an interest was manifested in the words spoken. April 22 I was joined by Bro. W. C. Ward, who labored with me here until May 3. By the blessing of God upon our labors, six adults decided to keep God's commandments. We organized a Sabbath-school of twenty members.

Elder C. L. Boyd visited them Sabbath and Sunday, April 23 and 24. He preached four earnest sermons to a crowded house.

We trust that this little company may have much of the grace of God, and see others take their stand with them and yield obedience to God's commandments.

Springwater.—We commenced a series of meetings here Wednesday evening, May 6. The attendance was large, and considerable interest was manifested in the words spoken. We received some opposition from the enemies of the truth; but God caused the wrath of the enemy to praise him. We labored at this place until June 16. The rich blessing of God was upon our labors. Thirteen signed the covenant, and others commenced to observe the Sabbath. A Sabbath-school of forty members was organized.
