Central America

By A. N. ALLEN

LA CEIBA, SPANISH HONDURAS.—I have just returned from an eighteen-days' trip to Olanchito and the surrounding towns. It has been one of the hardest journeys I ever made. I traveled nearly two hundred miles, the most of the way on foot, selling a few Bibles and a good many portions of Scripture, besides giving some tracts and papers away, and selling a few of our books. The people through the interior are very poor at present, on account of crop failure last year. The valley of Olanchito presents everything that could be desired by those wishing to settle in a healthful climate. The lands are level, well-drained, and cheap. I wish a few good families could be induced to locate here and live the truth. There is an opportunity for a good work to be done by the right persons. I would be glad to communicate with such families.
