TEXAS TENT.

By R. M. Kilgore; L. Caldwell

Terrell, Kaufman Co., April 29.

SINCE our last report, our tent has been blown down in a midnight gale, ripping some forty-four feet of canvas, but doing little other damage. The seat backs, being pivoted on bolts, fell forward with the center pole without serious damage. They are four-inch pine strips, planed and resting in mortises in uprights. The entire expense for back, planed, machine made, is 20 cts., uprights and all. We missed two evenings on account of the storm; losing some interest. Sunday evening a large audience gave profound attention to a searching discourse on Matt. 5:17–19; 15:1–9; 19:16–22; Jas. 2:8–12. Many are convinced and we hope for a good work. Had a good Sabbath meeting. We bring in the Sabbath early so as to have time to press it. Spiritualism to night. We visit much.
