REVIVAL IN CHARLEsTowN, R. i.


This town has always been remarkable
for its desliiution of religious privileges &
institutions. There never was a house
Ofpubiic worship in the town except the
oneowned by the Indians, a small rem
nant otthe once powerful Narraganset
tribe. The writer commenced Iaboring
IN the town in April last; and has spent
a part OF the time Since FOR the spiritual
and eternal interests Of the people. In
February the Lord commenced gracious
work 10 that place. The solemnity Of
the judgment day seemed to reign in our
assemblies; sinners wept over their sins
and cried for mercy. Many very decided
cases of conversion have occurred. and
the work appears to-be spreading in diff.
ferent directions. A church has been or
gained consisting Of twenty-six mem
bers Thirteen willing disciples followed
their blessed Savior in the delightful ordi.
nance OF baptism on the first Lord's-day
IN March, A numerous and deeply af.
ieclec audience were gathered upon the
banks Of our baptismal Jordan to witness
the solemn and interesting scene, There
was seen the grey headed sire and his
eomp1nion and their youthful sons, enjoy
ing the same glorious hope, following the
bright example Of their Lord and Mas
ter. Yesterday six more were buried
with Christ in baptism who FASTENED with
joyful hearts to perform this imperious du.
~. This little band then commemorated
the dying love OF Christ for the first time
around The sacramental table. The sea-
son will never be forgotten while time
lasts or eternity rolls on its ceaseless ages.
The Lord grant that this vine may take
deep root and sbear abundantly the fruits
Of holiness, righteousness and peace
We are now making an effort TO erect a
house Of public worship Eighty have
signed the temperance pledge since the
revival commenced. J. Fl. BAKER.

pondent at Troy writes US under date oil
March IL, 1910, as follows So We are
enjoyinga most precious revival of reli-
gion here. The first Sabbath in March
there were between seventy and eighty
added TO the Baptist church, about sixty Of
whom were baptized the two Sabbaths
previous. The others by letter. Since
then there have been twenty-five baptized
and many more we hope and trust are moi
far from the kingdom of heaven. Many
hopeful conversions are from that nursery
Of piety, the Sabtath-school. The Lore
is still with US and blessing u.s. Christ
