News

1890's

1897

Witness 1897-1:
- Kansas City: William A. Wilson: "I am now working here with Mr. C.J. Baker, who has a tent and awning factory. Kansas City has 200,000 inhabitants, and lies on the banks of the Missouri river. Ten years ago, when Mr. Baker came here, there was no assembly, but he and some of his saved employees started meetings, and now there is a meeting of about one hundred. Last summer we pitched the tent, and John Moffat and I went at it for eight weeks. The people said meetings were never so large before. Several were saved and gathered out."
- Chicago: Donald Ross: "Here we are on our way to Kansas city, Mo. We left Glasgow, 7th Nov., and got ashore at New York on the 19th, and have been at two conferences on our way west. We are fairly well after our Atlantic storms and all. Pray for us."

1940's
