Dickinson and Clay Counties
We commenced meetings at Greenwood church (M. E.), three miles south of Oskaloosa, on the evening of the 31st ult., with a good hearing. Have given eight discourses. The people are very kind, and quite willing to hear and investigate. Dickinson and Clay Counties.
THE good work is still onward here. Two weeks ago Bro. Grant met with us. We were greatly encouraged by his labors and counsels. A church was organized. Eight were baptized in the beautiful lake Okoboji. Yesterday we had monthly meeting. There were twenty-one adult Sabbath-keepers present. All took hold in the social meeting, and the Spirit of the Lord was present. Two united with the church, and there are six or eight others who will unite soon. There are now about thirty Sabbath-keepers in the southern part of Dickinson and the northern part of Clay Counties, who can meet together on the Sabbath; and it has never been my privilege to become acquainted with a more interesting company. I am holding meetings near Spencer, Clay Co. Shall probably finish my labors in this place soon. F. W. MORSE.
