Calcutta.—The work thus far this year has gone beyond our expectation, and we hope for still greater results. Elder Votaw baptized seven in Moulmein, Burma, a few weeks ago. The work in Bangalore is growing, and Sister Orr is calling for a public effort to be made there. But where is the man to join Brother Meyer in this?

More than twenty embraced the Sabbath last year—some through reading the Oriental Watchman, some through hearing it read by their friends, others through the workers.

The following is a paragraph from a letter sent to Dr. Ingersoll by a railroad station-master. This man sent an employee, who is a heavy drinker, to the sanitarium for treatment. He writes: “I am anxious to hear from or of him, as he left some money, a watch and chain, and other things with me.” Describing the man, he says: “He is honest in heart, and a perfect gentleman. A few days before he left, he came under the influence of God, and realized his need of conversion. May the Lord help you to draw this soul out of darkness into his marvelous light.” This is an evidence that some have confidence in the sanitarium.

Brother Reagan brought him to Sabbath-school in the morning, also to the afternoon meeting. I spoke on the disappointment of 1844. When he returned to the sanitarium, he asked about the sanctuary, saying, “I want to know more about it.” So they have begun readings with him. I am so glad that the Lord has his appointed ways to get the truth before the people.

We put two more workers in the field recently—Brother A. C. Mookerji and his son. These are Bengali laborers. The work among that people is opening up, and must be looked after.
