A Call for Preaching in Leeds

From Bro. Chase.

Bro. Smith: I have not written for a long time to inform the brethren of my whereabouts. I take this opportunity to say through the Review that I am living in the town of Leeds, Columbia Co., Wisconsin, on the road leading from Columbus to Leeds, about three miles west of Leeds's Corners. My P. O. Address is North Leeds. Should any of the brethren traveling east, west, north, or south happen this way, please make us a call, and we should be glad to see you. And if anyof them would take a little pains to come we should be very glad. We have no meetings in this vicinity. The only preaching we have is the Review. I have not even seen an Adventist since I left Mauston one year ago last March. I have called on the lecturing brethren a number of times heretofore, while living in the vicinity of Columbus, to come and give us a course of lectures, but all to no purpose as yet. Now I will call again, hoping that some one either east or west will heed the call. Will some one come over and help us? There are some here that want to hear on the subject of present truth. Bro. Phelps or brother T. M. Stewart, cannot one of you come? or any other of the ministers of the gospel of the kingdom. If any one will come soon, please inform us through the Review, or by private letter. I am alone in this place and have almost forgotten that I have been purged from my old sins. We live about three fourths of a mile from a good school-house that I think we can obtain to hold meetings in, if any of the brethren should come here to labor.
Yours with respect.
J. Chase.
