East Parker’s Prairie, Dec. 17.

We are now at East Parker’s Prairie, holding meetings in a private house. One family has accepted the truth. Nearly all who have attended our meetings acknowledge the truth. N. Battin. A. Mead.

Greenwood Prairie.

Dec. 11, we commenced meetings at Greenwood Prairie, where we remained nearly two weeks. The church seemed much encouraged, and resolved to live nearer to God. Two families commenced to keep the Sabbath; others are interested. Geo. M. Dimmick. John Hopkins.

Dussel, Dec. 25.

The interest at Dussel is still rising. We have an average attendance of one hundred; forty have, by vote, indicated their belief that we are preaching the truth on the Sabbath question, and five have decided to obey. Opposition is strong. We have just been notified that after one more meeting the house will be closed against us. We expect to secure a hall and continue the work. Bro. J. L. House has joined us. We desire the prayers of God’s people. John W. Moore. M. H. Gregory.
ARTICHOKE.—I came to Artichoke Nov. 28, and labored to Dec. 5. Our brethren and sisters love one another and have living faith, and the Lord blessed our meetings. Two united with the church. This church now numbers nine members, and the S. B. pledge is $64.
GRANITE FALLS, DEC. 16.—I have been at Granite Falls since Dec. 6. The Sabbath-keepers here are few in number; but they love the Lord and his truth. They have met bitter opposition; but there is a prospect that some will soon unite with this church. Many are convinced that we have the truth. One has embraced the Sabbath since I was here last. C. Nelson.
