Turner's Point, Sherman, and Savoy.—Since the camp-meeting I have spent nearly a week at each of these places, and have tried to set things in order and to strengthen the things that remain. Organized T. and M. societies and S. S. at each place.
At Sherman there was a more ready response to the principles of system and order which we endeavored to establish than is usual in companies so small and young in experience, every one, without an exception, taking part with a willing mind. All were ready to enter into the usual organizations to advance the cause of present truth. When our brethren and sisters labor unitedly, and with disinterested benevolence put forth every effort within their power to save others as well as themselves, we shall confidently expect to see souls added to their number, their basket and store increase in this life, and they themselves advancing more rapidly in the knowledge of the truth and in the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. The plan of salvation does not embrace one single selfish principle. R. M. KILGORE.
