A Preacher Needed in Minnesota

From Bro. Sanford.

Bro. White : We are wishing to have a conference here this summer, and wish you to obtain and send a preacher to attend it with us that we may form some system for the future. The brethren here think that they can sustain a messenger in Minnesota this season, and are willing to pledge themselves to do it if one can be got to come here. There are a good many in this section of country that have not heard any preaching on the present truth, and several wish to be baptized.
Bro. Morse seems to want to be about his Father's business again, and if we could have a preacher for a time to set things right, and establish order in the church, his labors might be beneficial in Minnesota. If you will send one, please notice in the Review what time he will be at Lake City, on the Mississippi, and we will meet him there with a team. His expense money shall be refunded back to him when he gets here, and whatever else he needs to sustain him in his labors. Take the evening train in Chicago, and in the morning you will be at Dunleith to take the boat, and in twenty-four hours you will be at Lake City. Inquire for Brown's boarding house, near the landing. Brown is an Adventist in belief, but never has heard on the Sabbath question.
In behalf of the brethren. Elias Sanford.
Ashland, Dodge Co., Minn.
Note.—We would call the attention of preaching brethren and friends of the cause to the communications from Brn. Sanford and Merritt. What shall be done for Minnesota? The cause there must find help soon.
