aAs REAcHED sOUTM AFRICA:
River Brethren Missionaries Write
Of Their Trip.

-
In a letter dated Sept. %, 1909,
Elder Engle writes: We acknow-
ledge Gods goodness in giving us a
pleasant voyage and safe landing In
Cape Town harbor yesterday morn
ing.
The last day of our voyage was
the toughest, though not particularly
serious. A little before crossing
the equator we had several days very
warm weather; but while crossing
the equator and thence to the end
of our journey the weather was quite
cool and cloudy skies, with continual
south or southeast wind. We had
good class of people as travelling
companions; most Of them being
EngIish--some Scotch and Irish.
Many Of them living in the different
South African colonies had been visit
ing the land of their nativity during
the South African winter season anu
are now returning home.
Every Sunday morning religious
services were held in the first class
saloon and in the evening In the
Aecond class. On the evening OF
Sept. 18th the service was conducted
by a Scotch Congregational minister
who with his wife and two children
are on their way to occupy a mission
station about 500 miles north OF
Victoria Falls. From the end OF the
railroad line they have 900 miles to
travel on foot. It will require about
100 natives to convey them with
their belongings to their destination.
He has been in the mission field at
various points since 1891.
The last Sunday evening we were
privileged to have charge OF the ser
vice held in large, well-filled dining
room, having a very attentive aud
fence and believe good seed was sown
while the Lord graciously helped
us hold forth the simple gospel mes
sage from I Tim. 2:4, s, 8. We
had good congregational singing In
this service. The English people
are lovers OF vocal music.
At least five ministers were our
travelling companions, one being a
native African Wesleyan.
Passing over the equator we soon
lost sight of the North Star and
came in sight Of the Southern Cross
which is formed by four stars.
Yesterday, the day of our landing
was very fine and exceptionally
warm. This morning changed to
cool and cloudy.
We are being entertained at the
home Of Mrs. Lewis, Christian lady
with whom most of our mission
workers have stopped on their way
to and from the fields. Here also
our first missionaries stopped several
months in '97 and '9S before going
into the interior. Mrs. Lewis is a
deeply spiritual lady and a very
active worker in the Temperance
cause in South Africa. having also
refused several pressing invitations
to assist in temperance campaigns
in the United States,
Plums and peaches are now in
bloom here; Ioquats are now ripe and
guavas are Just past. Flowers In
abundance are in bloom and the
sweet fragrance Of the orange BIOS
som is being profusely emitted.
The Home" of our entertainment
is located on an elevation from which
we can look down on the city and
harbor, while Just back of us is
very high mountain.
AS our time is limited in order to
get mail on today's mail steamer !
close by sending greetings to the
friends in the homeland.
