Opening Doors in Kiang-Si

By R. F. Cottrell

R. F. COTTRELL
Early last autumn one of our colporteurs met the native preacher of an independent church. They talked together upon Scripture topics, and the preacher, whose name is Li Yun Tai, was greatly surprised to learn that there is a mission in China with a definite last-day message.
His interest was thoroughly awakened; he came to Chang-sha, and remained over a month in order to attend the annual meeting in Hunan; he accepted all points of truth, and at the close of the meeting presented himself for baptism and church membership.
Afterward Mr. Li returned to his home in Kiang-si Province,—about one week's journey overland,—with a full supply of tracts, booklets, and papers. We have long prayed and looked forward to the time when the Lord would go before us in the opening of this new province, and now it seems that our petitions are being answered. One of our native workers has recently returned from a trip to Mr. Li's home, and reports that he is gathering out a nice little company of believers.
