Waterloo, Wis., April 6, 1873

By D. Downer

Wisconsin.

SINCE my report of March 18, I have been detained here by storms and bad roads. I have been holding meetings as often as consistent considering the condition of the roads, and am seeing some fruit of my labor.

Last Sabbath, six more united with the church. Sunday, March 30, five were baptized. Several more have commenced keeping the Sabbath. I now intend to go home for a few days to prepare for summer labor. We hear often from different parts of Wisconsin, people calling for help. One man offered me seventy dollars to go to an adjoining county and stay two weeks. I earnestly pray that God will send help to this State. But, brethren and sisters, we are toiling on. I believe we never have been in better working order than now. Our great lack is, a want of laborers. I am trying to do my work well. I still plead for your earnest prayers. D. DOWNER.
