ALABAMA AND MISSISSIPPI.
By C. O. Taylor
AT our last monthly meeting at church No. 2, Bladen Springs, one was received into fellowship. It was rather an interesting case, the sister being the aged mother of Eld. J. M. Elliott. She had struggled long with the strong habit of tobacco-using, and finally gained the victory in her seventy-eighth year, and came with us. When I was in Washington county last month, we worshiped in our new meeting-house, though it was not finished. Nine received the ordinance of baptism. I visited Jasper Co., Miss., the last of last month for the first time. Bro. Elliott has labored here at different times during the last year. As the result, I found ten adults keeping the Sabbath, with a large number of children to swell their number sometime, if rightly instructed. Seven received the ordinance of baptism.
