Recruits for Foreign Fields

SEPTEMBER 6 two parties of missionaries, appointed at the time of the General Conference, left New York for their fields, one bound for India, the other for Brazil. The India party consists of the following: Brother and Sister C. C. Kellar and two small children; R. P. Morris, wife, and infant; Brother and Sister F. A. Wyman; R. D. Brisbin and wife, and Miss Rose Boose. The first three families and Miss Boose go out after having spent a year at the Foreign Mission Seminary. Brother and Sister Brisbin leave from New England after preparation at South Lancaster Academy and Melrose Sanitarium. This is a fine addition to India, and a place is waiting each recruit.

The South American party, to supply the long-asked-for help for Brazil, are Miss Sarah Kinner, Bible worker from Southern New England Conference; Miss Corina Hoy, of Massachusetts; Miss Louise V. Wurtz, Bible worker and nurse from Eastern Pennsylvania Conference; M. E. Carter, wife, and two children, from Foreign Mission Seminary; Henry Haefft and wife, who also spent the year here in Washington; Carl Reift and wife, of the New Jersey Conference; Paul Hennig and wife, from Clinton (Mo.) German Seminary; Carl C. Specht and wife, of South Missouri Conference; and Jacob Peters and wife, from North Dakota Conference. This splendid addition to the working force in Brazil will bring much courage to the hearts of the few workers, as well as to the brethren and sisters there who have been struggling to hold up the light in that neglected field.

Let us remember in prayer these outgoing missionaries, that their labors may be greatly blessed of God in the needy fields to which they go.
