Dunbar have been released to go to England. Elders A.W. Sabin, Parley P. Pratt, C.W. Hardy and John R. Holt have been released to return home.
Elder Morgan desires to see all the Elders who were called to labor in the Southern States Mission at the recent conference, previous to their departure.

Returned Missionaries
Among the missionaries who returned home the other evening was Elder P.P. Pratt, who for the last two and a half years has been laboring in the North Western and Southern States. As a fuller account will soon appear in the News we withhold any further items of his travel and experience. Elder Daniel Stuart called with Brother Pratt. He returned on the 8th of August from a nine months mission to Tennessee.
