Three Locusts, Marion Co., June 3.—We pitched our tent here May 27. Although the weather has been quite unfavorable, the interest is good, from fifty to two hundred attending. This is a small village on the A. & G. W. and C. C. C. & I. R. R. The truth had never been presented here. Brethren, pray for and help us. Our thanks to those who have already lent us a helping hand.

Labor among the Churches.—Since the Institute at Dunkirk, I have visited the churches at Corsica, Bellville, Newark, and Waterford. The church at Corsica is still in a prosperous condition. The interest in the Sabbath-school work is increasing. Held two meetings with the church at Bellville. There is here a growing interest in the meetings and Sabbath-school. The superintendent has done his duty well. Three were baptized, and two united with the church. Also held meetings at Red Brush, where there is still a good interest. Bro. Bowers assisted me in these meetings.

The church at Newark are much scattered. Several new members have united with them. The Waterford church is the largest in the district, but its members are scattered. However, there are few but that might attend meeting every Sabbath. May they awake to the importance of this. (Heb. 10:25.) Many things afforded us pleasure as we met with these brethren. They have an efficient Sabbath-school superintendent.
