Golden Gate.

By C. Nelson

The brethren here have too much neglected their duties in the prayer and social meeting, and the common result has followed. They promised to do better in the future. One brother was very sick. We prayed for him, and the Lord seemed to hear. When I left, he was quite well.

I reached home Dec. 27, and found my family well; but our house was gone. It burned down the day before, and nothing was saved but the thin clothes worn by my wife and children, so we are left destitute in the cold Minnesota winter. We look for a better home above, and ask the people of God to pray for us. I may be kept from the field for a short time.
