I desire to call your attention to the improved condition of the Field. We have bap- tized 29 persons as against 14 in last report. We have reduced the immigration to 8 as against 25 in last report. We have held 364 public meetings besides Sacrament and other private meetings held where but few resided, ^against 337 last time^ 26 sunday Schools as against 20 last time. 33 ^sick persons^ were admin- istered to and but 3 have died.
