Cornish as missionaries, Bro. F. M. Cooper, of Bay City, had been wired to come and assist, and he preached on the evening of the 17th. Bro. John L. Bear preached among the branches mostly. The fragments of two branches which were disorganized at Bay City and West Bay City time ago, numbering fourteen members, were organized into a branch by Francis M. Cooper, December 14, 1893, and known as the Valley Branch, with Francis M. Cooper president, Cyrus Smith priest, and Henry J. Badder teacher. Bro. Francis M. Cooper middle of June, and located his family in Bay City. As the different elders pass through Bay City, preaching a sermon occasionally, good is being done, and Priest J. W. Burget is located there and aids the work nicely, and some are being baptized occasionally. The June conference (15 and 16) was a grand success; there were two sail boat loads of Saints from Bay Port who had fair wind coming, and the wind was in a fair direction returning, but blew rather roughly. There were present at this conference five elders, nine priests, and about one hundred and fifty members. ?
