MAJOR MALAN writes from France:- "Two days ago, in a mining district in the centre of France, I preached to an assembly of some 200 miners and their wives. They had left their work at four o'clock. At six they were washed and cleanly dressed, and many men and women stood for an hour and a half, and listened most attentively to the testimony of Jesus. Not many months ago these were all ignorant Romanists. Many now rejoice in the knowledge of salvation. In many parts of France the people invite the Protestant pastors to preach the Gospel to them. This country needs the prayers and help of English Christians." (County Cavan Newspaper Transcription Project)
