YANKTON, S. D., NOTES.

On Monday, December 20, Yankton
fas favored by visit from the bish-
op of this district, Rt. Rev. B. F. Lee,
and our regular pator in charge, Rev.
j. w. Dowden. They arrived on the
11:25 train from Sioux City and re-
turner on the 1:25 for the same place.
Both trains being late made the visit
much shorter than it should have
been. They made their first visit at
the nburch, where they met snne nf
its officers. They were next taken
cut to the home Of Mrs. ]. H. Hills,
who served dinner for them. After
visiting at the home of A. S. Lewis,
who was just recovering from spell
of sickness, they left for their train.
Yankton people were indeed glad to
