Sherman and Marystown.

By R. M. Kilgore

From Fairview I went to Sherman, May 24, to complete the organization of the church. Four more were added to the church, three were baptized, and the proper officers were elected. By private conveyance I reached Cleburne, a distance of one hundred and twenty miles, where I spent the Sabbath, and on Sunday attended the funeral of Sister Rosa Chapman at Peoria, thirty miles farther south. Spoke also at night to the church.

Began tent-meetings at Marystown, Johnston on Friday night, June 4, with about forty hearers. Johnston is a small village in a thickly settled country, ten miles north of Cleburne. Our audiences have greatly increased, and we shall labor and hope for good. My family is with me, and Bro. T. T. Stevenson is tent-master.
