MEETINGS IN WISCONSIN.

By Isaac Sanborn

BRO. SMITH: The work of the Lord is still onward in Wisconsin. I continued lecturing at Little Prairie, till I had given thirty-seven lectures. Between thirty and forty have decided to keep all the commandments of God and the testimony of Jesus. At our last Sabbath meeting, after I had spoken a short time, there were testimonies borne in favor of the truth, causing us all much joy. The next day (first day) at 12½ o'clock I preached at the Baptist church in Palmyra four miles north of Little Prairie, after which we repaired to the water where between four and five hundred people beheld five persons follow their Lord in the sacred ordinance of baptism. Truly it was a time which many of that congregation will remember. Quite a number expressed a desire to take the paper; but times are hard, and money scarce, therefore they cannot send immediately, but will as soon as they can. May the Lord lead them and sanctify them through his truth. ISAAC SANBORN.
