TENNESSEE

Edgefield Junction, June 28.
I am now located here for a time, supporting myself by my labor and preaching what I can. There is a man in Nashville who was formerly of Baptist proclivities, but is now in sympathy with all the doctrines of S. D. Adventists. He takes the SIGNS and REFORMER, possesses a missionary spirit, and is actively engaged in circulating our periodicals. By this means quite an interest has been awakened among his neighbors. June 24, I visited and held service with them, also obtained a number of names of persons to whom the SIGNS may be sent.
June 25, I visited the few who embraced the Sabbath at Simpkins chapel. They have been subject to the most subtle opposition; in some instances parental authority has been brought to bear and has prevailed. May the time hasten on when the chosen shall have power, in the name of Jesus, to rise above opposition and be free.
I am trying to weigh the motive of every action, and learn humbly at the feet of Jesus. ORLANDO SOULE.
