Weskan Weskanean: Rev. Beaty and family discovered their residence, on their claim near this place, on fire, and it had got such a start that they only saved a few things. All their clothing, beds, bedding, and their best furniture was consumed. It is a sad blow to them, as it leaves them wihtout a home, and very little to furnish a home with.—The friends of R. B. Beaty raised nearly $50 in Weskan and vicinity and about $80 in Sharon.
Salina Weekly Tidings, June 1, 18926378
WILSON—R. B. Beaty, Pastor, has had one of the most remarkable revivals in its history. The meeting continued all winter and one hundred and fifty persons were converted, reclaimed or sanctified. The church is too small to hold the congregations and the Trustees are contemplating an enlargement. The prayer and class meetings are largely attended. The Sunday School is large and interesting. Wilson has the largest Epworth and Junior Leagues of any charge in the district and the membership are consecrated to God and the work of the church. The Missionary collection is nearly one third from the full equitable apportionment and makes Wilson the banner charge on the district. The K. W. U. apportionment is full. Ministerial support and all the benevolent collections fully met. This is Bro. Beaty's second year, and his return, is asked for the third.
