Elder William D. Bowring, who has
just returned from a nilsson to INDIAN
territory, addressed the audience He
sadd he could not now tell how valu-
able his labors had been 20 others but
they were of ineseimable price to him
self.
The people in the Indian territory
are n-progressiVe. They are also
poor and often the elders would find
families almost destitute of mes nee
essaTies and children crying for bread
where no bread was. They are ambi-
tious and as long as they can 1--we with
out any great eXertion they are con-
tent.
Hospitality is a prevailing trait
among that people. Half a century
ago President Woodruff preached the
word of God in the same locality.
Thirty-six elders have been laboring
in the Indian mission the past year and

very scarce. 1t has been the week of
the excursion fer the benefit of the
Odd Fellows Home fund. and every
thing else has had to take back seat.
To recapitulate the press notices on
the excursion Thursday last would be
superfiuous; at the same time some
words should be written adequate to
the day, for it was, without exception,
the greatest outpouring of Odd Fellows
and their friends on such an occasion

but in noticing the huge attendance
of Thursday last no credit is given the
Odd Fellows for the work they did in
making the 18th of August the red let

been stated in the press that 200 per-
