Lewis Co.—We came to this county Jan. 29. Spent a few days with the Otter Creek church; but a severe storm prevented a general attendance. By invitation, we came to Shaw Hill Feb. 5, and have held seven meetings in the Baptist church, with fair attendance and increasing interest. The people seem desirous to hear the truth. The church we are using is a fine one, being tasteful and commodious. May the Lord abundantly bless the kind people of Shaw Hill.

Indian Lake—We came here Feb. 3, to visit a branch of the Chester church. They were in need of help. They had given up their prayer and Sabbath meetings, which we think was a great mistake. The apostle teaches us that we should not forsake the assembling of ourselves together. We spent four days with them, speaking nine times and visiting from house to house, and left them much encouraged. One brother paid $10 on the reserve tract fund, and others took a few dollars’ worth of books. The brethren took a club of nine copies of the Signs, and we obtained one new subscriber for the REVIEW. The last evening we were there, the Methodists offered us the free use of their meeting-house for a temperance meeting. The meeting was a success. Sixteen persons signed the teetotal pledge and paid the initiation fee, and five others signed the pledge; seventeen signed the other pledges.
