India

By Harry Armstrong

CALCUTTA.—We are thankful for all the blessings we have received since coming to this field, and for the many opportunities of service. We leave Calcutta, feeling that it has been good for us to be here. I have had quite a good interest among the medical students at the government college. The work there has already borne fruit.

This month (March) we close up our work here, and after spending a little time in the hills, we shall proceed to Colombo. We have already secured our passage, and made arrangements in Ceylon. I am sure the Lord will give us a harvest of souls there. We have two canvassers now in Colombo, and quite a number of subscribers to our paper. I have had already several letters from Ceylon, from those who are deeply interested in the Oriental Watchman, and I intend to get into close touch with these souls, and by the blessing of God win them to the truth. Colombo will afford a good opportunity of spreading our literature among all nations of the world, as ships from all countries call there.

We feel to praise God for the health and strength we enjoy. We have never worked so hard in any other field, and yet, notwithstanding climatic conditions, our health is good. Our souls burn with the love of this glorious truth which must bring the history of this world to a close in this generation. We ask you to remember all our Indian workers before the throne of grace. We are glad to read of all the way the Lord is leading his people. May the journey soon end, and his kingdom come.
