Tomah and Mauston, Wis.

MAY 9-18, I spent with the church near Tomah. Bro. Decker's visit here in February was timely, and his meetings produced a good effect. A good interest has since been maintained. During the time I was there I held eighteen meetings, and visited from house to house. Sabbath, the 17th, four were baptized. We also attended the ordinances. Seven united with the church, and three others desired the prayers of God's people, and declared their intentions to lead Christian lives hereafter. All these persons are heads of families, and seven of them are husbands whose wives are already in the truth.
I spent four days, the following week, with the little church near Mauston. They have had no preaching for nearly two years. I found them all faithfully trying to carry out the truth, though surrounded by bitter opposition. Six members have been added to their number during this time, and others will soon unite with them.
