faithfully serving the Brethren churches
in the vicinity of Mound City, is soon to
leave for other fields of labor. At his own
request he is relieved of the work here,
which on account Of so much driving,
and the consequent exposure, he feels is
too great for one of bis years. He and
his good wife will leave shortly for Fair

The Denver Republican of May

of tarantulas, scorpions and rattle
