Here at our house we had an interesting two days meeting a week ago Saturday and Sabbath held by two ministers in union and the first communion of our denomination ever witnessed in the neighborhood, but I do hope it will not be the last. They think it a great pity that ministers who can preach so well don't do their duty any better. They think we are in great error. I think it is a pity this fatal error had not been discovered centuries ago, but enough of this. Our spring has been wet and backward.
Corn is small for the season but grows fast, and is well colored.
Wheat crops are generally good. Some are running from it, some are greatly in favor of it and think it will be great improvement to our state. They are working on part of it. The nearest point to us will be about 9 or ten miles. I hope it will cause our country to settle up with people of capitol and enterprize, and elevate the character of our country.
