PENNSYLVANIA

By J. G. Saunders

Ulysses, Potter Co., Oct. 28.—I attended the quarterly meeting of the Port Allegheny church, Oct. 4, 5. It was a profitable occasion. Four were baptized, and three united with the church. A general revival spirit prevailed. I then spent ten days in the vicinity of Potter Brook, and found the brethren there still interested.

I next joined Bro. D. B. Oviat in a two-days' meeting at Port Allegheny. Our object was to awaken a new interest in the Sabbath-school, tract society, and temperance work, and a general interest in the cause in our new Conference. All signed the teetotal pledge; they also took 750 Annuals. Advance steps were taken in all of the reforms. Two more united with them at this meeting. May the blessing of God rest upon this church.

In company with Bro. Oviat I held a three-days' meeting with the Ulysses church. We found discouragements here, but by the blessing of God peace and harmony now prevail. We shall look for great help from this church in our new Conference, as it is one of our oldest churches.

Brethren, remember us in your prayers. J. G. SAUNDERS.
