A Proposition.

By J. M. Lindsay; O. T. Booth

BRO. WHITE: The time is near for Bro. Cottrell to move again, and I would like to see him have a little home of his own. The Lord is blessing his labors and the church are enjoying rich and encouraging pieces in the Review from his pen almost weekly. The church in Western N. Y. are in favor of helping him, and will raise about $200 here. The place we think of buying costs $1,200—$500 to be paid down, the remainder to be paid in three annual payments with the interest. If the church will make the first payment, Bro. Cottrell thinks, if he and his family have their health, they can meet the annual payments. This would leave $300, to be raised by brethren outside of Western N. Y. The property is good and cheap. We would extend an invitation through the Review, to those that appreciate the labors and writings of Bro. Cottrell, to help. We want it as soon as it can be collected. Bro. Booth will advance what we lack the 1st of April for a month or two. J. M. LINDSAY. O. T. BOOTH.
