OSAWKEE.

The quarterly meeting at this place began Nov. 28, and continued eight days. The attendance was not very large, yet the interest was good. Nine were added to the church. Six were baptized. The Sabbath-school is in a prosperous condition. The Dunkers have a large church in this vicinity and had pretty firmly fastened their trine-immersion doctrine on the community at large. But with the help of the Lord we showed up this outrageous Christian baptism in such a manner that the “spell” is entirely broken.

PLEASANT VALLEY.

At the close of the Osawkee meeting, we returned to Pleasant Valley and held meetings from Wednesday night till the close of the Sabbath. Three more were added to the church. On Sabbath the brethren from Osawkee met with us. We celebrated the ordinances. Had an excellent meeting. This was the first meeting of this kind either of these churches ever enjoyed. These churches are both in good condition with bright prospects before them.
