[Letter from Geo. Bell to Y.J.Allen, March 25, 1892]
Oxford, GA
March 25, 1892
My dear Doctor;
Your kind and thoughtful letter of the 24th Feb. reached me last week and I must acknowledge it at once. I am so glad that you allow me to write any details or chestnut to you.
Everything in Oxford
goes on smoothly. The
people have been kind
to me and I am quite
satisfied with it. Boys
tease me very little and
are all getting on well. We
have some mightly boys at
our hall and no doubt
heap good will be done

among the irreligious
boys. Dr. Candler is earnest
in preaching, diligent in
teaching and busy in
managing the College
affairs. We boys all love
him so much.
Last week Bro. Eakes (our
pastor in charge) wanted me
to preach in his country
church in Shiloh. I went
there and preached morn-
ing service for him. I
was very well rec'd by
the people out there.
Afternoon we went to the church
again and practised some
songs. After they found
out I can sing and play
on the organ, they wanted
me to sing some Chinese

songs for them. I sang
the old S. S. song "Jesus
loves me this I know"
and some of the young
ladies tried to follow
the chorus. They remem-
bered Ya-Su but they
could not catch up
E-ngu.
Today is cold and
raining - cold and
without coal. Every boy
is trying to cut the wood
and burn them instead
of coal. Bro. Bailey, out
Junior boy, made appoint-
ment for me to lecture
in Monroe todya, but since
the weather is so bad and
the rain pours down like
anything we decided to put

up till next Friday.
Our students missionary band will have a miss- ionary meeting next week in Covington and Bro. Yiin and I were appointed to lead the meeting in our nation continues. Our band is trying to raise up some money to help the missionary cause.
I have finished my
B. Ph. Fresh. Medieval
history, and last week
was our examination
and I got 9.9 This week
we began the Modern
history. Last Wednesday
was the first time Dr.
Candler called on me the
Soph Bible. If I can stay

here long enough I wish
so much to take a regular B. Ph. course or H. B.
course. If I take the
regular course I think
I can join the Fresh ex-
cept Greek and Latin.
Please thank Mr. Loche for his interesting to the Wesleyan Adv. in regards to both Yiin and me. If I have enough time to spare I wish I would write a letter to the Advocate too.
Enclosed please hand to Chung Grun Kong or his brother.
It is now getting late and
I will go to bed. Good night
My dear Dr.
Your obt. faithful,
Geo H. Bell
