KENTUCKY

By S. Osborn

Elizabethtown.—Our general quarterly meeting at Bro. Barr’s, near Elizabethtown, Jan. 17, 18, was a success. Bro. R. G. Garrett preached one sermon, and I spoke three times. Considering the bad roads, there was a good representation of the brethren and sisters. As usual, the time was taken up in preaching, and social and business meetings. Our Sabbath-school was well attended. As the most of our canvassers have left the State, the T. and M. report shows some less labor performed than usual; but there is an increase considering the number of workers. Eleven copies of the Signs were taken, four subscribers were obtained for the Review, and thirteen for the weekly Instructor; and some money was collected on past dues. The tithes for the past quarter amounted to a fraction less than $100, so the tithe of that for the General Conference will be $10. Truly our Conference is coming up to their duty most nobly.

Our ordinance meeting was one of the best we ever had. Bro. G. W. Nevel, of Bear Wallow, Hart Co., was duly elected and ordained local elder of the Elizabethtown church.

To the Lord be all the glory. S. OSBORN.
