FISH CREEK, WIS.

By John G. Matteson

The last two weeks I have held meetings in Door Co., three days in Sturgeon Bay, and the remainder of the time in this place. There are about fifty Sabbath-keepers in this vicinity. A few are Norwegians, the rest Americans. They embraced the truth last winter when Bro. Decker preached here. A few more have commenced to obey the truth lately. I have tried to present to them the life in Christ and the duties for our time. The Lord has helped in this work. They have never yet celebrated the ordinances, but we hope soon to be ready for this. Some have not yet cleansed themselves from the use of tobacco, but they will either do so or go back to the world. I am trying by the grace of God to encourage them to choose the first.
