Labor in Nevada.

By G. W. Colcord

My field of labor during the last two months has been at St. Clair, Stillwater, Wadsworth, and Reno. As the result of labor performed at different times, I had the pleasure of baptizing two and receiving the sincere promises of five others that they would prepare for baptism in the near future. I also received the names of two persons on the covenant. Fifty-eight dollars was raised during the holidays for mission and church purposes.

At Stillwater several persons acknowledged the truth presented, and one expressed a determination to live a Christian life. At Wadsworth a gentleman promised to arrange his affairs in such a manner that he and his wife might be able to keep the Lord's Sabbath.

I attended quarterly meeting at Reno, transacted some church business, and held a missionary meeting in which twenty copies of the SIGNS and thirty of the American Sentinel were added to the clubs already being taken. One member was added to the society, and thus the work progresses.

My address, for a number of weeks, will be Carson City, Nev. G. W. COLCORD.
