Jackson Co., Mich.

By E. R. Jones

COMMENCED meetings at the Landon school-house, town of Springport, Jan. 6, and continued them till March 14, with the exception of Feb. 27, when I met with the friends at Athens, and March 6, when I was snow bound at home. The greatest hindrance to our meetings was the weather, which was said to be the severest ever known in Michigan. At times the roads were impassable from drifted snow.

The congregations numbered from five to two hundred. Gave fifty-seven discourses, and seven or eight have fully decided to be of those who keep the commandments of God and faith of Jesus.

So far as human agency is concerned, what little was accomplished is to be attributed principally to the efforts of the family of Bro. Bramhall, who spared no pains to make these meetings a success.
