Bamberg and Buford's Bridge.—We have just had Brethren Leitch and Marshall with us at Bamberg in a meeting of two and a half weeks' continuance. Good has been done. Sinners have been converted, believers sanctified, and nine added to the Church. We have begun the new year hopefully. The outlook is good. On next Sunday we expect to dedicate our new church, Oakland, in Orangeburg County. It is one of our best country churches. Buford's Bridge holds its own, with some advance, perhaps, during the past year. It is no mere compliment, our invitation to the editor to come down and preach for us. Be sure and do so. We cannot promise as pay a "long list of subscribers," as the ground has been pretty well worked already, and the list (of fair length) upon your publisher's books.

Yours affectionately,
J. L. STOKES.
Bamberg, S. C., January 30, 1890.
