ALABAMA

By A. O. Burrill

Owl Valley, Etowah Co., May 3.

Since my last report, the meetings here have progressed without much interruption. The busy season of planting, and occasional rain storms, have on some occasions prevented our assembling, as this is a country settlement, and people have some distance to go to attend worship, and the roads become almost impassable in wet weather.

Last Friday a first-day Adventist challenged me to a public discussion, which commenced on Sunday, April 28, and is to close May 5. I trust the issue will prove favorable to the truth here, as many have expressed a desire to keep the law. Bro. Elliott is attending the debate.

On Wednesday next, May 8, our tent-meeting opens at Gadsden.
