Panama

By C. E. Peckover

CRISTOBAL, CANAL ZONE.—It became absolutely necessary for us to build, in order to have a place in which to live. We are now getting settled again, and hope soon to be pushing the battle to the very gates of the foe. However, the foe seems to have made a hard attack upon us in the last few days, with some apparent success; but we hope that all will come out right, and the cause of present truth here suffer no harm.

There are now two regular canvassers along the Panama Railway besides myself, so I trust we can sell a great many books. But we need Spanish publications, as well as English. We are doing what we can to learn the Spanish tongue, so as to be able to work for the Spaniards more successfully.

We are all quite well, though the heat affects my wife very much. Personally I never felt better, as long as I make good use of the umbrella and a cool hat. I trust you had good meetings at the conference. We are of good courage here. C. E. Peckover.
