To Brethren in Minnesota.

DEAR BRETHREN AND SISTERS IN MINN.: We would call especial attention to the following from our constitution:
"Art. II. Sec. 3. It shall be the duty of the Executive Committee to call on the churches and scattered brethren for means when needed, and disburse the same."
Minnesota is a good field for labor, and we need help. If our Gen. Conf. Committee see a commendable promptness in us, we shall certainly have help. According to the advice of Brn. Sanborn and Snook, we design making a request for missionary labor, but we wish to have our request accompanied with a liberal donation to the Gen. Conf. Missionary Fund.
Our fund is ample for the support of the cause among us, for all have pledged nobly. The third quarter of the year closes with this month. Come, brethren, be prompt; the Lord loves the cheerful giver.
We would also call attention to Art. III, Sects. 3 and 4, of our constitution:
The different church treasurers will send the donation of their respective churches in a draft on New York, to our State treasurer, David Farnum, Deerfield, Steele Co., Minn.
