GEORGIA AND FLORIDA.

By C. O. Taylor

The few brethren in Brooks county, Ga., are steadfast, and are growing in the knowledge of the truth. Bro. Mitchell is in poor health. He is able to leave the house but little, and has nearly lost his voice, as his disease affects his throat. His faith in the truth is unshaken. He would gladly live for the sake of his family, and to help carry the truth to others, yet he is resigned to the will of God.

This winter I have traveled some in Florida with my team. I rode about two hundred miles, going as far as the Gulf of Mexico; and as I went I distributed tracts and talked the truth. Some were interested. I shall have some names for the Signs when I get back to Reynolds. Those who want them will please address me there. If any wish to send me Signs direct from the office, to be distributed in the South, they will please correspond with me.

I am more than ever convinced that the great majority of the Southern people will never have any better preparation for the Judgment than they now have, while a few will be ready to welcome the returning King. I feel much at home with this people. I find them kind and hospitable. My health is much better than it was in the North. This is a good field of labor, because there is so much to do. We leave for Reynolds, Taylor county, Ga., this week.
