My eldest brother and uncle were greatly alarmed about my health, (they not being members of the church,) desired to have a doctor, which was done. When the doctor (William Deady, of Bad Axe,) looked into my throat he said it was the worst case he had had for ten years. Elder William Davis was sent for. Arrived about 11 p. m., Saturday, July 18, 1891. By request of Charles G. Lewis. The work has advanced at Alpena, along the northwestern part of Michigan. On the 31st day of July, 1892, a branch was organized at Alpena, by Edmund C. Briggs and George H. Hilliard. At that time Bro.
