There are 12 new comers who are mem bers of the Baptist ohurob, but they have not united with us. There is every reason for encouragement, except the slowness of my brethren in South Caro lina to respond to our sore and pressing need for help in building the Lord a house here in the midst of infidelity and Mormonism. Now, won't my brother pastors tn Ooonee, who have not already doue so, make an effort to send me a collection by the 1st of Dooernber ? Brethren, help us. We really noed your holp.
