Fix this textThe work at Inverell seems now on a permanent
Fix this textbasis. Good work has been done during the past
Fix this texttwo months.
Fix this textMr. Fryer arrived safely at his destination, and
Fix this textis now at his work. His presence and help will
Fix this textdoubtless be of much assistance to Mr. Caldwell.
Fix this textMiss Fowler, one of our helpers at Plumpton, has
Fix this textbeen very ill, but we are pleased to hear that she
Fix this textis now getting better, and is spending a little time
Fix this textfor rest and change with Miss Thompson, at

Fix this textOur thanks are due to the Merewether Methodist
Fix this textJunior C. E. for their kindly gift towards
Fix this textthe funds of the Mission. God bless the Juniors.
Fix this textThe month just gone has been one of acute testing
Fix this texton some of our Mission Stations ; but God, who
Fix this textknows all, did not permit of a testing too severe.
Fix this text“ His grace is sufficient.”
Fix this textMiss Pain has had another turn of sickness, and
Fix this textwe earnestly ask your prayers that our worker may
Fix this textbe sustained in her time of trial.
Fix this textLa Perouse has had quite an army of visitors
Fix this textduring the month, and God has very graciously
Fix this textmade some a blessing to Missionaries and people.
Fix this textThe Metroplitan C. E. Union made La Perouse
Fix this textthe spot for their Rally on Saturday, March 14th,
Fix this textbut the rain descended so copiously that only a
Fix this textlimited number of members attended.
Fix this textMeetings were held in the Church, afternoon
Fix this textand night, profitable times being spent. At night
Fix this textthe Church was full.
Fix this textOur good old friend Mrs. Lean has once more
Fix this textbeen mindful of our workers, and we want to thank
Fix this texther most heartily for her latest gift.
Fix this textTo Mr. Hugh Ross, the Petersham Baptist S. S.,
Fix this textand all other kind friends, we also tender our
Fix this textbest thanks.
Fix this textAt the invitation of the Endeavourers connected
Fix this textwith Enmore Tabernacle, a talk on the work of the
Fix this textMission was given by the President to a large and
Fix this textinterested audience.
Fix this textA similar address will be given at the Hurst
Fix this textville Methodist Church on Wednesday evening,
Fix this textApril 8th.
Fix this textWe thank the Endeavourers for the opportunity
Fix this textthus presented of telling out the story of the
Fix this textwork amongst the natives of Australia.
Fix this textMiss Weir is to conduct the Monthly Prayer
Fix this textMeeting, on Saturday, April 4th, at 3 p.m., in

Fix this textthe Lord will do you good.”
Fix this textNice little parcels of clothing have been received
Fix this textduring the month, for which, as a Council, we are
Fix this textextremely thankful.
Fix this textOur growing work brings increasing demands,
Fix this textand the gifts of clothing enables our workers to
Fix this texthelp the people to be cleanly and warmly clad.
Fix this textThanks to the kindness of the Rev. Mr. and Mrs.
Fix this textDunstan, our people were permitted to exhibit
Fix this textsome of the articles of their handicraft at a Mis
Fix this textsionary Loan Exhibition held in the Oddfellows
Fix this textHall, Enmore, during tbe month.
Fix this textActive preparations are being made for the
Fix this textAnnual exhibits at the Royal Agricultural Societys
