Morrill. – Bro. O. J. Beaver, of Iowa, commenced a series of meeting Feb. 19, and preached two weeks to a full house of attentive listeners.  Some of our neighbors said they were the best sermons they ever heard preached in Minnesota, March 4, Eld. S. H. Miller, of Waterloo, Iowa, came, and March 5 we met at the writer’s house for church organization. An election for two deacons resulted in the choice of brethren John Mowan and Wm. March.  Our meetings closed March 6.  Much interest had been taken in them by the people.  This colony is located about one hundred miles north of Minneapolis, Minn., on the Northern Pacific R.  R. our railroad station is Royalton.  We give a hearty invitation to all ministers, traveling over the Northern Pacific R. R., to stop off at Royalton, and preach for us, as we are without a shepherd.  All that contemplate stopping with us, will address the undersigned, at Morrill, a few days previous, so that we may meet at the station with conveyance. J.  J. Troyer, March 12.
