Report from Bro. Byington.
By John Byington
Bro. White: My last report was from the Oneida church. As it is not the season of the year suitable for evening meetings, I spent most of the following week in visiting families of the Oneida and Windsor churches, who live quite scattered. A son of G. W. Newman, of Windsor, was cured of a habit of getting up nights in his sleep, by adopting the two-meal system. Some time after, his difficulty returned by his eating supper two evenings, when they had hired help. He then said to his mother, that he did not wish to eat three meals a day any longer. The children are satisfied with two meals, though quite young. June 17 and 18, we had three meetings, and the ordinances with the churches of Windsor and Charlotte, at the Allen school-house. The house was well filled, both Sabbath and first-day. We felt freedom especially in attending the ordinances.38Sabbath 24th, and 25th, we had four meetings with the church in Bunkerhill. Some difficulties recently existing had been settled. The church were united. They have a good Sabbath-school. Our meetings were well attended, and I felt blest with this people. I have visited twenty-five families the two weeks past, for the purpose of advancing their spiritual interests. The apostle says, he taught them publicly, and from house to house. Acts xx, 20. Jackson, Mich., June 28, 1865.
