GRAND JUNCTION. Colo. Dec. 13. 80.
Friend Lanber:-As our friends will be
anxious to learn how we made the journey
from Dodge City to this place. l ask a
little space in your paper to inform them.
The journey was very pleasantly and
safely made on the Santa Fe train leav-
ing Dodge on Monday night. $50. and
arriving at Pueblo at 1 80 a. NJ. and then
on a standard gague train of the d. i r.
G. X. r.. via Salida and Leadville. The
accommodations were good on all trains
and the weather all that could be desir-
ed for the season. We were a half day
in Pueblo. where we enjoyed calls from
many of our friends there. We stopped
of at Salida two nights and day visit
ing and resting. We very much enjoyed
the scenery from Leadville on to this
place, which we reached at 3 80 Thurs
day afternoon.
Are for the present enjoying the hos
pitality of some of the church people.
and will until our goods reach here and
we succeed in renting house. Houses
are constantly in demand. We find the
place growing rapidly. 1t is claimed
that fully 1000 persons have been added
to the population since the census taking.
This gives population of about 1850.
We shall find plenty of work to do
here in looking after the interests of our
church. But we think we shall like it
very much. and we shall be pleased to
see any of our Kansas friends at any time.
Yours. &C..
