“Then they that feared the Lord, spake often one to another.”
From Bro. Ross.
Bro. SMITH : Since Bro. Barr left this place for Pa., I received a call from West Monroe, to meet with a few in that place who had resolved to keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. We found eight heads of families who had started for the Mt. Zion, among whom were P. Allen, Dea. of the F. W. Baptist church, and his companion. The first Sabbath that they observed, they held a public meeting at the meeting-house in that place, where Brn. Barr and Wheeler had been laboring before, and since, Bro. and Sr. White labored with and for us at the tent meeting, which some from that place attended. Two weeks from the first meeting Bro. Treadwell and myself met with them again and found them growing strong and bold in the cause of truth. The inquiry is, Where is Bro. Barr? is he coming back? That region appears to be a good field for labor. They say since last winter the truth has been working like leaven, growing out from the reading of those silent messengers, published at the Review Office, which we distributed when we were there. The work is still onward. I have just learned of two others that have laid hold on the Sabbath, and many are interested.
In hope of eternal life. A. Ross.
