p181 [F Rowan] BELOVED BROTHER, - You must not be discouraged as to work or Canada. There are two things: a gathering out of the remnant in these last days, and the fact of the conversion of sinners as in any day, and specially in the last. But it is difficult to make them go pari passu. This was my object when I came to Canada for six or eight weeks the last time, and the Lord blessed it in a measure. More confidence in one another was produced in some. But it is one of the difficulties of the present work, and always has been in a measure; but the evangelistic action was more apart latterly. Our part is to work in through. - says he is alone, and has sent for brethren's books, but to say I am out of the camp, and can trust God for fields of work, is another thing.

Affectionately yours.

St. Louis, July 22nd, 1872.
