Marsh Creek.

I BEGAN meetings at Marsh Creek, Feb. 26, and continued till the 17th of March. Although the attendance was not large, there was a commendable interest on the part of those who did attend. Fourteen have signed the covenant, and several others are keeping the Sabbath. We expect to organize a church here soon. Three were baptized. Arrangements have been made to keep up regular Sabbath meetings. We confidently expect that if the friends here are faithful their numbers will be increased. C. F. STEVENS.

Morton Co., March 18.

I AM now holding meetings at the Farmingdale school-house, Morton Co. I commenced one week ago, and have had a fair attendance, thus far. Last evening I spoke on the Sabbath question. The house was crowded, and the best of attention was given.

The interest in this place was first awakened by publications scattered by Dr. Hoyt, of Orleans, Nebraska. Six have already commenced Sabbath observance as a result of his missionary effort, and the prospect is that others will yet obey. J. S. THORP.

Spring Side, Pottawatomie Co.

I HAVE been holding meetings at this place. This is a new field, and it gave me much encouragement to see the effect of these meetings. Quite a number manifested a desire to investigate the doctrine preached. I had a good interest, and the people want to hear more. Expect to visit them again after our quarterly meeting. B. F. TRUEX.
