Stayton, Oregon.

By Chas. L. Boyd; E. W. Barnes

We closed our meetings here last Sunday evening, and have moved the tent to Scio, where one of us, with Bro. Raymond, will commence meetings this evening.

The calls for the living minister far exceed our ability to meet the openings of Providence. While moving the tent to Scio, an urgent petition was received to go in another direction. Oh for more reapers, clothed with an unction from on high, to go into the broad and fast ripening harvest fields.

Some here have commenced to keep the Lord’s Sabbath; others are halting between two opinions. One of us will remain here for a little longer, to complete the work. Brethren, we ask your prayers.

Aug. 25, 1882. CHAS. L. BOYD, E. W. BARNES.
