By A. W. Jenson

Lexington, Lee Co., May 13.—There is a little Danish settlement here, numbering twenty-five persons. I have been with them five weeks, visiting from house to house, and as the result five have commenced to obey all the commandments of God. Last first-day they were buried with their Lord in baptism, and united with the church at Clifton, Bosque Co., until an organization can be effected here. Others are interested, for whom I have considerable hope. May God, by his unerring counsel, lead these dear friends in the narrow path to eternal life.

Providence permitting, I expect soon to go to Round Rock, where there is a settlement of several hundred Swedes, among whom there is a Lutheran and a Methodist church. I shall be able to furnish a great many names for the free distribution of the Swedish paper, and shall be glad of all the help I can get in this direction, and also to be remembered in the prayers of God's people everywhere.

For the next four weeks my address will be as above.
