Wm. Davis, Missionary of the Board at Marion, writes from Oukfuskee, Ala., 
thus: 
"I constituted a church, assisted by a committee appointed by Wedowee Church, 
nix miles Eust of the town of Wedowee, on Saturday before the second Sabbath in 
July, constituted with 11 members, and on Friday before the third Sabbath on 
August 1 commenced a meeting at that place, and continued until the Thursday 
following, and the result was 21 by experience, 18 baptized, 4 by letter, 25 in 
all added to the little church. I was assisted by my good Bro. J. W. Noles, a 
licentiate, whom I feel that God has blessed, and he is becoming very useful in 
destitute regions of country. He is now with me on o tour, and wo have had very 
interesting meetings. I commence again today at the little church, Antioch, that 
Bro. P. bas noticed in your paper, of the 27th of August. I have now baptized 21 
during this quarter, and 5 others awaiting the next meeting at Rocky Branch 
Church".

The following from Wesobulga, Ala., Sept. 5th: 
Two very interesting, protracted meetings have just closed, of ten days each, 
with the church Mt. Prospect ana Salem Carey-Association. The result of the 
meeting at Mt. Prospect was an addition of 14 to the church 8 by baptism. At 
Salem 14 by baptism. The meeting at both places closed with undiminished 
interest. Bro. H. I. Hickey is pastor of the former church and was assisted 
during the meeting by the writer. The writer is pastor of the latter church, and 
was assisted by brethren Hickey, Jas. D Jordan and G. W. Joiner. The latter 
named brethren occasionally the former through the progress of the meeting. I 
have also received information that there has been a general revival among the 
churches through this section, and I hope that the brethren engaged will forward 
for publication, the result of their meetings.
C. P. Sisson.
