FIELD NOTES.

By Editor

THE London Present Truth notices an encouraging report of meetings held at Belfast, Ireland, by Elders O. O. Farnsworth and Francis Hope.

ELDER DAN. T. JONES will take up his residence in Boulder, Colorado, for a time, on account of his failing health, and his family, now in California, are preparing to meet him there.

IT has been decided to reprint in book form the instructive discourses given in connection with the General Conference and published in the Bulletin. They contain highly important matter for the present time.

ELDER R. C. PORTER, whose health broke down through overwork previous to and during the General Conference, is now recuperating in Missouri. It is expected that he will resume his labors in the New England field when sufficiently recovered.

CALIFORNIA is called upon by the General Conference for further contributions of laborers for foreign fields. Brother Delos Lake and Sisters Georgia A. Burrus and Myrtle G. Griffis are detailed for India, and Brother A. S. Hickox for Queensland, Australia.

A LARGE interest is reported in meetings held by Brethren E. E. Franke and E. H. Russell, at Millington, Maryland. Previous prejudice had given way and a large attendance at the meetings was the result. A good omen was the large number of intelligent questions found in the question box, showing a spirit of earnest inquiry after the truth.
