“Falinge, St. Edmund's.-On Sept. 9, we had our first Magic Lantern Service for this season, the subject being 'The Pilgrim's Progress.' The pictures were very much enjoyed by the people, and we trust the teaching went home to many hearts. We have good open-air meetings, praise God, and sometimes over 100 people stand and listen to the Gospel truths. If we don't go to one of our stands every Sunday the people miss us and ask the reason of our absence. We thank God for these tokens of interest on the part of the people, and we believe God is blessing our efforts. For Capt. Butterworth.”
