MISSOURI

While at Avilla, Jasper Co., we received a telegram that our aged mother was at the point of death. Immediately we started home, where we arrived in time to see and converse with her before her death. We trust she sleeps in hope.
The 9th of January we commenced a course of lectures in Utica, in the Congregational church. We have given seventeen discourses. Congregations range from 100 to 350. The interest is good. Several have said they will keep the Sabbath. The people are mostly friendly, and help in the singing. The minister of the congregation has done all he could to have the house closed, but to no avail as yet. We hope for an ingathering of souls here. To this end we ask the prayers of all of God's people. C. H. Chaffee.
