TENNESSEE

By Orlando Soule

Five more have signed the covenant at Union Chapel, and seven others are keeping the Sabbath.
June 23, 24, the church at Edgefield Junction and Sabbath-keepers from the Chapel met with the Ridge church in general meeting. Thirty-five Sabbath-keepers were in attendance, the largest gathering of the kind ever convened in this State. The Spirit of God was with us to the close. The ordinances were celebrated.
From Bro. P. D. Moyers I learned that the Mt. Gilead church is still steadfast in the truth. Bro. Moyers, while laboring to support his family, spends Sabbaths and Sundays in the Lord’s vineyard; and is raising an interest in several directions.
Not long ago, I met a young man from South Carolina, who is a school teacher and a student of law. I gave him tracts. Soon after, I received a letter from him in which he expresses faith in “the doctrines of S. D. Adventists.” He also mentioned a lady Sabbath-keeper who resides in another part of the State.
I am now on my way to select a suitable place for our general meeting this fall.
