TEXAS CREEK, COLORADO.

Eld. H. W. Decker held meetings here on Sabbath and first-day, May 22, 23, giving practical discourses. On Monday a meeting was held for the purpose of completing the organization which had been partly entered into the day before. Seventeen were baptized by Bro. Decker. Nine had previously signed the covenant, and at this meeting the number was doubled.
On the 3d of July we organized a T. and M. society of ten members, eight of whom paid their initiation fee. An H. and T. club was also organized, ten signing the teetotal pledge, and one that against rum and tobace. Others would have signed, but through some misunderstanding respecting the time of the meeting, they were notpresent. The fact that this church is the work of the T. and M. society should encourage those who are laboring in this branch of the cause.
