TENNESSEE TRACT SOCIETY.

By Clinton Owens

The quarterly meeting of the Tennessee T. and M. Society was held according to appointment, Jan. 18, 1880, at Edgefield Junction. There were none present from other churches, consequently the attendance was small. Reports were received from only two churches, those at Ridge, Mt. Gilead, and Springville being delinquent. The labor reported was as follows:—


No. of members,	33
“ “ families visited,	18
“ “ letters written,	12
Pages of publications distributed,	6,243
No. of periodicals “	888
“ “ Annals “	23
“ “ subscribers for Good Health,	2
Subscriptions for REVIEW (renewals),	5
“ “ Signs “ (clubs),	11
“ “ Instructor “ “	3
“ “ Good Health “ “	5
Received from book sales,	$1.00
“ “ new subscribers,	1.00
“ “ on one-third, donations, and membership,	5.00
“ “ T. and M. fund,	34.50

We had hoped by this quarter to be able to raise the T. and M. fund to $250.00, but this has not been accomplished. It now amounts to $180.25. The President, Eld. G. K. Owen, has been absent, and there has been no one to visit the churches and urge them to engage in the work as they should. I have tried to do all I could. Dear brethren and sisters, we want your prayers and co-operation, that the T. and M. work may prosper in this State.

CLINTON OWENS, Sec.
