The Gospel Messenger Sept. 11, 1897 page 583 Louisiana Grayson. – Bro. S. A. Honberger, of Roanoke, La., come to this place Aug. 5, to hold a series of meetings, and preached fifteen soul-cheering sermons. We were made to rejoice when three precious souls united with the church by baptism. We also held a council-meeting. we organized church at this place, and held a election fro a deacon. The lot fell on Bro. Isaac P. Wimer. We held our love feast on Sunday night, at which time tem members surrounded the Lord’s table. We had a good meeting. All Brethren passing this way are cordially invited to look at the country and locate among us. They will have a church home. There is plenty of cheap land for sale, and some homestead land still remains to be taken. – Abel M. Wimer, Aug. 24.
