From Linton, In.: During the month of march, we conducted 50 meetings, made 180 calls according to reports, bettered at least four attendance records, had an increase in daily Bible readers, and two were added to our number. The church her is not very strong in our way of viewing it, but very responsive to calls for good work. 51 at prayer-meeting last night, and 40 at our cottage prayer-meeting Tuesday evening. We are expecting Brother Boll to start our meeting the first Sunday in May. We hope to have everything in readiness at his coming. The Linton Church.
I began a meeting here at Hubbardsville, April 12. While East I want to hold a meeting in every place in New England, and adjacent territory, that wants a gospel meeting. Anywhere I am asked to come, preaching only the gospel as revealed in the New Testament, without addition. Or subtraction, on their own terms, is my offer now. I want every soul to be without excuse before God. J. Madison Wright.
I had a good trip to Bohon, Ky., Sunday. Real good crowds Sunday morning and night, and a fair crowd Saturday night. I enjoyed the trip very much, I am at Evansville, Ind., today. The work seems very much improved here. G. B. Dasher.
We have been very busy with the little Japanese baby; but he is dead now. Was sick only three days with pneumonia. We learned to love him during these three months. Our first experience in death. We then took the sick mother. She had been in bed for three months with dropsy. She died last Saturday. We had a hard time because the neighbors wanted to carry out heathen customs at the funeral. Pray for the father and little three-year old girl, and for us. Mrs. Orville D. Bixler.
