Show fj . From The West. IS ditor Bannki;: m , I though a few linos from the Cap- itnl City of the Golden titutu might b. B of interest to your mimy readers. All I is moving along slowly hero. Business i men complain thtit it ia very dull thi H summer. The woather is unusually m cool; peop'o wearing their overcoats in the evening. We have had a few earth-I earth-I quakes out here warning the peoph: S what the Lord can do in a lew seconds. jB "Wo nowhold sieotingi on the sttvutM "M and ateo in the suburbs of the uity. 1 9 have never found much tioublein gct- ting school houses and hulls to preach B in for most all trustees 1 have Been in B tho state area line, liberal eet of men B but our trouble iH to get people to come Ik out to heat us for there is an utter in-E in-E difference to religion. Still wo find PS many flue, honest, and good people out 2 here and a few are gathered into tlie Wk ' fold of OhriHt. We now iuire about Co B Elders in this stole wheie tlicie was jB only 10 when 1 lirdt came. We have H two elders in nearly every county on IA. the coast line front Oregon to San Diego so the people will hear the Gospel that J the few wiio are seeking for the tiuth ir2 may lind it. Ijjl -Ve have had a visit from Mi!1. E. J. w Taylor and alio has proved heiself a MI flue missionary for the first Sunday she Mk was Here eiiu helped us einj on the H Plaza and a week later when I went jpj down to Frisco to seo Elders Chipmau Jfi and Cropper off for Tahiti we etayed Bl over Sunday and Mrs. Taylor, Mis Can- ft lick and Klder Stoker of Spanish fork X made their voices ling on Market htieet X nnd gathered several hundred around to .Je hear them. She has been ('own in t)w M southern part of the state and is now W with us here again. She spoke well in w our testimony meeting. On Sunday a alio leaves for Poitland. 1 have seen tome visitors from Utah como out and ' stay within two blooks of tho Elders and ,.gj'S-s never call on them. If a visitor wantB ' to see a city if he will call on sjmo of ' the Elders they will be able to see more v! - , than any guide would snow them for 1 8 can assure them that after an Elder lias JL. trampod over a city from three to six j "" months he knows o cry nook and corner If of it. I I am glad to see the people of Lehi I aro going to celebrate the Glorious I Pourth. The Saints of Saeramento are going to hire a small steamer and take I us up the river for a picnic. Pres. Nye f and family will be with us. I hud the 1 pleasure of meeting Elder J. W. Goates ffl at the depot when he camo through. gWishintr the Uan.muk of the Banner m City all success, I remain, yours, S T. P. Thank. I 405, 15th St. Saeramento, June 2G, 1897 |
