Simultala, India

By W. A. Barlow

A post card received a short time ago from a young student in the C. M. S. Mission school, at Bhagalpur, shows how God is working with the literature among the people of India. This young man I met on my tour among the students in Bhagalpur and the district last year, with our Urdu, Hindi, Bengali, Santali, and English papers and tracts. He says:—

“After a long time I am writing you a few lines about my condition; that 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,

“SANEY BROWN.”

I understand this is an Indian Christian student.
