Ecuador

By GEO. W. CASEBEER

GUAYAQUIL.—We are well settled in Guayaquil, and have been doing what we could in the missionary work, besides studying the language. We can understand most of what the people are saying to us now, and can make ourselves understood, perhaps sometimes in a crude way.
Last evening I gave a Bible reading without an interpreter, to a young man. He seemed to enjoy it, and I am sure I did. The Lord is helping us in every way.
We expect to move to Riobamba, about one hundred and sixty miles interior, on the railroad, and spend the winter there, as that is the most unhealthful time here in Guayaquil. Then I am sure we can learn the language faster to get away from all English-speaking people.
Brother Davis is doing a good work here. I am glad the Lord has sent us to Ecuador. We see people on every hand who need just the message we have for them, and it must be that the Lord has many in Ecuador who will obey the message. GEO. W. CASEBEER,
