Our colored brother, Pastor Peay, was in our midst last Sunday, and delighted our people with a very fine lecture. He is a Christian gentleman, and made a very good impression on our people. The collection amounted to $133.G0, but we may be able to increase that a little, since the people had the opportunity to hear a report at first hand . . There was only one thing wrong about the lecture : It was too short. We could have listened to Brother Peay for another hour. So the lecture was a success and ., •cry well received. And )lOW let me tell you of some of the after-effects. We had invited some of the better class of colored folks living in the vicinity, and they came. One young man ,vas so· taken with the account of the ,vork among the members of his race that he came around last night and asked if he could study to become a Lutheran preacher. He has an eight.-grade education and began the first year of high school. . . .
Fraternally yours,
