Simultala, India

By W. A. Barlow

A POST CARD I received a short time ago from a young student in a mission school at Bhagalpur, shows how God is working among the people of India through our literature. I met this young man last year, while on a tour among the students in Bhagalpur and the surrounding district, with our Urdu, Hindi, Bengali, Santali, and English papers and tracts. He writes:—
“DEAR SIR: After a long time I am writing you a few lines about my condition. I could not write you any letter before this because I was not here and thought that you would not be there at the place where you told me. I hope that you will kindly send me a few books to sell, because here are many boys, Hindu and Mohammedan. So I hope that they will buy. When they will buy them, I will send you the money, and if they don’t take them, I will return you the books.
“I am yours faithfully, “SANDY BROWN.”
I understand this young man is an Indian Christian student.
