By GEO. L. BUDD.

BRUNO.—It was recommended by the conference committee that Brother E. M. Chapman and the writer go to this place immediately after the workers’ meeting at Minneapolis. When we arrived at Bruno, we found ourselves handicapped by a quarantine for diphtheria, and all public places were closed. The way looked dark to us, but we were sure the Lord had sent us here in response to a call that was made, and so finally decided to hold meetings in a little schoolhouse about two miles and a half from town, in a sparsely settled country, until the quarantine was raised. To our happy surprise the little schoolhouse was well filled. As a result of the work here, about fifty, including children, have taken a stand for the truth.
We are now beginning a new effort in a hall in the village. The country is stirred for miles around, and the ministers of other denominations are coming from every quarter to hinder the work. The work in the schoolhouse in the country created a desire to hear the Word, and we now have a large congregation in Bruno. We ask for the prayers of God’s people that the truth may still gain the victory at this place. GEO. L. BUDD.
