KANSAS

By J. H. Cook

We held meetings with the South Mound church, April 25 to 29. South Mound is the name of a railroad station six miles from Parsons, where the church is situated. There are twelve Sabbath-keepers here. Robert Atkin was elected leader. Systematic benevolence was pledged liberally, with the one-third for T. and M. work.

I spent April 27 to 29 at Limestone. This is another new church just temporarily organized, with twelve members. They have elected their officers, and made their s. b. pledge for the coming year. This church is made up of the brethren from Monmouth and this place. At both these places strong efforts have been put forth to keep the people from hearing; but the Lord has blessed the truth, and now twenty are keeping the Sabbath where ten months ago there were only three. Some have moved to Arkansas, and are calling for help there. J. H. Cook.
