Dear Marion We have agreed to refer this letter of Ethel's you to assess for advice. We do not know any thing about "China Inland Mission", Mr. Frost, "Toronto Preparations". or Prayers as a sole basis for Missionary Operations. Please write to Ethel and write to us what you think about it.

All well as usual here. Uninterrupted fine weather here this month. except that Thursday morning at 5 oclock was a very violent thunder & lightening shower with snow or sleet instead of rains. but turning warm after it, and no trace of it left at night except some this mud in the streets.

Sincerely Father

Ethel China Inland Mission writing fr. Chicago.
