For the Morning Star.
Brother Burr:—I would just say that I spent a few weeks of the last winter in the valley of St. Lawrence, N. Y. where there is a very promising inviting field for Freewill Baptist labor. The harvest in that section is great, and laborers few. The few are doing what they can, but there is still a cry for help. If some of our preachers of good report, would visit that field they would find a ready welcome. I purpose, with the blessing of providence, to return to that section again in a few weeks.
Yours, &c.
S. CUMMINGS.
