near Morpetb, England, under date OF
January IS, 1897, send to the Millennial
Star the following account Of recent oc
currences in their district:

ence in Shields, we had asked Tor The
Primitive Methodist chapel in West
Sleekburn, which. on our return, we
were pleased to learn, had been granted
us, and accordingly we held a meeting
there which was well attended. On re-

Sunday, in the latter, we were asked TO
address those who were present, and
made remarks to an audience oil more
than three hundred, many of whom
were young men and young ladies',
while number were men OF mature
years and OF some local prominence.
AT the close OF school we received an
invitation TO take tea with the supern-
tendent, Mr.. Mayne, and invited to again
attend the Sunday school.

show that the Elders may do we'll to at

acquainted. Many mere are becoming
