Returned Missionary
This afternoon we were called upon by Elder Milando Pratt, who arrived home last evening, from a mission to the eastern states, upon which he left this city on February 6th. He has been absent six months. He labored in the States of New York, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania. He baptized four persons, enjoyed his mission greatly, and returns in good health. His brother, Elder Lorus Pratt, who was laboring in conjunction with him, accompanied his father, Elder Orson Pratt, to England. They held a large number of open air meetings, especially in Connecticut.
