BROOKS CO., GA.

By C. O. Taylor

I filled an appointment in the northern part of this county on the third Sunday in October. I had spoken there once a month during the summer. From the first there has been much interest to hear. I spoke several evenings. Some kept the next Sabbath for the first, I think others will keep all the commandments.

I have received many packages of papers from friends. I know the reading matter is doing good, but how much good I have no way to tell. All, with but one exception, speak well of the REVIEW and SIGNS. One man said he had tried to find some fault, but could not. The papers are read by one family, and then sent to another several miles away.

One gentleman who takes the SIGNS sent several copies to his brother. He became so much interested that he did not stop to read them all, but came seventeen miles to attend the meeting. He would have stayed during the week, but was teaching and could not leave his school. He wants the paper sent to him, and will pay for it. The brother and his wife are keeping the Sabbath. This is their first step in seeking the kingdom of God.

I can use all the back numbers of our periodicals, and all the tracts, &c., that friends will send. They will be read by many with as much interest as you read the paper weekly. Bro. Hutchins' plan is a good one. Send by freight, and you can send four times the amount with the same expense. Several have asked by card and letter if they should send back numbers of REVIEW and SIGNS, tracts, &c. Yes; send all you have to spare. We want all kinds of reading matter published by our people.

I will give notice when I change my address. Till then it will be Quitman, Brooks Co., Ga. C. O. Taylor.
