An Appeal from Athlone in Ireland

 
The following letter has just been received from Ireland. It emphasizes the great need of that sorrowful land for the Word of God: ― Athlone.
Dear Dr. Wreford,
“If you could send me a parcel of Testaments and Traveler’s Guides for giving to the soldiers, can promise that everyone will be well used. There is a very remarkable desire for God’s Word amongst the troops, especially this last month we notice a real spirit of inquiry, and quite a number of lads have decided for Christ. Our daily prayer meeting at 1:30 is now always well attended, and the gospel meetings are often quite full. Every day we have large convoys in with men from the West, and we long to supply them with a Testament or Guide to take back to lonely stations where generally there is no spiritual help. May God bless Your work abundantly.
“Yours sincerely, ―.”
