Editor Presbyterian Record Dear Sir:

I have given two solid months to teaching nearly two dozen students and as many preachers, from their different stations. I am still at the same work, and speak varying from two to five times every Sabbath. If you were only here to see how hard and earnestly all worked. The Bible is our "mine." Inexhaustible, fresh and new that "mine" is. All geographical, botanical, geological, astronomical, anatomical and chemical facts which I gather along the journey of life are used in digging away at the "mine". I loved to think of there being only One God, who launched the worlds into space and gave a revelation to the dwellers on this changing world.

Saturday, Mrs. Mackay, our three little ones, A-Hoa and fifteen students went to Bang-kah and had grand meetings. Yesterday morning I made a quick-march to Pang-kio-thau, preached in front of a temple, and removed many teeth. Then came out here and addressed students, preachers, and girls from the girls' school. God be praised?

I have given Dr. Johansen a letter of introduction to you. He was here for several years, and is now on his way home to Berlin, via Canada. He attended me when I was so ill during the French troubles. He has been away two years, last week, when here, looked very ill himself, whilst I am in capital working trim and free from fever; have scarcely had any fever for a year.
