amusing account Of his experience and pro-
gress in establishing church in Elko," for
the deleetation Of the Presbyterisn Synod at
Sacrsmenep, did considerable violence 10 the
ninth COMMUNICATIONS mild expression
His statement that there are many families
OF intelligence and refinement in Elko from
the Eastern cities" also violates the ninth by
Implication, for nine-tenthsrf the families in
town are Of or from the Pacific slope, and no
one will deny that the nine compare favorably
with the one, both in intelligence and refine
ment. As an anecdotist, ths Rev. Brown is
unreliable, and as comic lecturer we should
pronounce him q failure.
