Attack on a New Mission Station

ELDER E. L. MAXWELL, superintendent of the Inca Union Mission, passes on to the Mission Board a letter from Elder F. A. Stahl, reporting an attack upon him and Sister Stahl and their helpers, as they were planting a new mission station. The attack was led by priests, who urged the ignorant people to kill our workers. The plan was frustrated, however, and Elder Stahl expects to see this incident still further open the way for the truth. We shall later give a full report of this murderous assault, from which Elder Stahl escaped with but slight injury. Elder Maxwell concludes his letter with the brief appeal, “Please send us help.”
