  Dear Primitive:

  The Brethren and sisters in Pike county, Illinois, met in council at their new meeting-house, near Hadley Creek, and under the supervision of Eld., Daniel Vaniman assisted by Eld H. W. Strickler, and organized a new congregation. They were formerly a part of the Mill Creek church.  Thye have one minister and two deacons, and twenty-five members in all. They gave the new church the  name of Hadley Creek church.  Brother Daniel held forth the word in its purity with power.  One stood up for Jesus. May love and prosperity crown the efforts of the dear brethren and sisters, is my prayer.  H W. Strickler
