** LOI 1935-2: F.W. Schwartz, Detroit, Michigan: "I have spent most of my time recently in Michigan during the whole summer in school houses, etc., and more recently in a series at Bay City, with a few calls at other places, and then a brief series at Deckerville. God has been using His Word for which we praise Him. Am just now in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan with Bro. Sheldrake in a series of Gospel meetings. A few interested folks have been coming and we trust that God will give them deliverance at this time. Shall appreciate prayer."
