A mention that "a society of Mormons" in Brooklyn's Eastern District hold well-attended services three times each Sunday. The group numbers about 200 people.
The meeting of May 9th featured addresses by Elders O. Pratt and J. A Young who had arrived recently from Salt Lake City on a "missionary tour" and who "doubtless soon pilot a party of the Saints to their Mecca of the Valley."
