"We have some noble workers at this place. Dear old sister Trigg lives here. She is one that can rightfully be called faithful and true. She has been a member a long time, and though right in midst of strong opposition (Methodist) she has kept on reading her Bible, and praying until the light has begun to shone, and her influence realized. She told the writer that she had prayed, and hoped for a number of years that her dear children might see the true gospel light as she saw it, and now her prayers were being granted;. Two of her boys (Bro. John and David, and also Bro. John's wife, Sister Mary) have taken their stand firmly on the Bible. Bro. John has seated a nice little cabin for us, on his own place, and there we have our evening meetings. Pray for us"3993
