Report from Bro. Byington.

BRO. WHITE: Since my last I have met with the churches as follows: Jan. 30 and 31, at Columbia, Ohio; Feb. 6, at Newton, Mich., with the sick; the 13th and 14th, at Charlotte. Here Moses Hull had been lecturing on Spiritualism, but the church had become but very little affected with his infidelity. The 20th I spent at Newton. After the Sabbath, had a business meeting in reference to their meeting-house. On the 21st, attended the funeral of sister Brown, in Assyria. Sabbath, 27th, at home. Sabbath, March5, at Convis. The 12th and 13th, at Owasso, funeral of Bro. Wilkinson. The 19th, at Parkville. To reach this place we rode all day Friday against a very severe storm, which very much affected our health. The 26th, at Burlington. Sabbath, April 2, at Jackson. The 9th, at Battle Creek. The 15th, set out for Windsor quarterly meeting, but the mud and storm prevented our reaching there. Was glad that Bro. Van Horn was at this meeting, and had a good time. We spent Sabbath and first-day in Convis. The 23d and 24th, at Bunker Hill, in company with Bro. Van Horn. Here we organized a church of eighteen members, and also attended to systematic benevolence. The 30th, at Newton, but in consequence of the rain there was no meeting. As the storm abated, we reached Battle Creek in season to listen to Bro. White's discourse before baptism.
