Newark, Ohio.

By Dudley Marvin Canright

We have just closed a three weeks' meeting at Newark. The brethren had completed a meeting-house, 28x46, eighteen-foot posts. As they are few and mostly poor, it required a great effort; however, they have a good little meeting-house. There was a debt on it of about $600; subscriptions were raised to the amount of about $500. Our wealthy brethren near this church should help them some upon it. Five or six embraced the Sabbath. Several of the children made a start in the Christian life. Seven adult persons united with the church.

We lately met with the church at Springfield, in their new hall. Three united with the church. All are in harmony.

In Dunkirk four have embraced the Sabbath within the past month.
