Connecticut, or some other State, we can
not by any means ascertain. Will the
editor of the Witness enlighten US on
these points ?-Baptist Record.
Lest, by any means, the desired information should
be out of reach Of the Editor of the Gospel Wit
ness, he and the Editor of the Baptist Record (bro
l. NJ. Alen) are informed that it should have read
Hinesburgh and Cornwall, instead of " Harris
burgh," and " ConeSdale.''
Letter from brother Brown to brother
CCnant.
Sadiya, Asam, May 10, 1888.
My Dear Brother,-It is long-very long
siace we saw you and your dear family for
the last time-but never, never will you be
! forgotten by US. We often think and speak |
Of you, and the numberless kindnesses we
received while under your roof Among
the last papers We received, was a piece
from you on the abolition of slavery. need
not say that was eratided with it. Long
may the principles of freedom and equality
triumph among the sons of Vermont, not
withstanding all the rage and bitterness of
the oppressors Of the human race, and their
efforts to silence the voice of humanity and
reason.
We have not received any letters from
you Or Mrs. Conant since leaving America,
though 1t is very probable you have written.
Many letters are miscarried in coming so
great distance. 1t takes often full twelve
month for letters from our friends to reach
f US.
We are now occupying an interesting
field. We have just got the language so as
a to be able TO speak little, and | am max
! ing few attempts at addressing the people.
4 1t Is great work TO acquire foreign lam
4 guage so as TO speak it readily. We lost
: two whole years when we first came out. in
: studying the Burman language, which will
probably never be Of any particular benefit
!, TO US. This l have always very much re-
:. GREETED. "....... ..
!. We find this tolerably healthy country,
: and except few slight attacks of fever las,
j. summer, have enjoyed uninterrupted
health. Mrs Brown has been more subject
to attacks of fever. We have now two
+ children, the one you saw at Brandon, and
, a little boy about two years old whom we
- call Nathan. You have probably heard thai
u we have buried one at Maulnein.
: We have just written an appeal to the
i Board for more missionaries 10 the Brah
,, maputra Valley, and cannot but think thew
h will respond to the call. Here is one Of
5. the most inviting fields that has ever beer
r. presented to any missionary Society. The
, Serampore missionaries who took the GROUND
, many years ago have relinquished it, so tha
> if our Board now step in and oecuny il
$. there will not be missionary of anv othe
y denomination throughout the whole ofAsam
i. But it is land of darkness and the shadow
,r of death. Oh that God would shine upor
10 1t, and multiply converts as drops of tn,
n morning dew. We do not vet despair O
seeing good days. Pray for US that we ma,
have grace TO be faithful TO our Master
r. cause. Yours in precious Savior,
10 NATHAN BROWN.
