TENNESSEE T. AND M. SOCIETY.

By Clinton Owens

The quarterly meeting of this society was held April 18, 1880. Owing to the absence of the President and the busy time of year for farmers, the attendance was small, yet the interest in the missionary work is good. The local societies of Springville, Mt. Gilead, and Ridge did not report. The report for the quarter is as follows:—


No. of members,	33
“ “ reports returned,	12
“ “ families visited,	19
“ “ letters written,	11
“ “ periodicals distributed,	1,372
“ “ Annuals “	91
“ “ subscribers obtained for periodicals,	40
Pages tracts loaned,	5,536
“ “ given away,	1,896
Money received,	$28.20

This is the work of only two local societies. I hope to report more labor performed in this State next quarter. This is only one-half of what might have been done, had all been active in the missionary work. I hope we may learn to work more diligently in the cause of the Master in the future.
