General Convocation Meeting in Iowa.

PURSUANT to the vote of the Iowa State Conference, "That the Seventh-day Adventists of Iowa hold a General Convocation Meeting of several days, at some central point," Providence permitting, meeting will be held in the Iowa tent, near the S. D. Adventist meeting-house, at Pilot Grove, Washington Co., Iowa, commencing on Wednesday, August 29, 1866, and continuing over Sabbath and first-day, Sep. 1st, and 2nd.
It is expected that there will be a general attendance of the brethren and sisters in this State. Those also that can come from adjoining States, are cordially invited to attend. Come with provision and bedding, prepared to take care of yourselves, that the church at Pilot Grove may enjoy the benefit of the meeting with you.
There will be preaching only once each day, except Sabbath and first-day. Much of the time will be spent in prayer and social meetings, in which all the brethren and sisters will be expected to take a part. Let us remember that the object of this will be our mutual religious interest, and advancement in holiness; and may we pray for God's blessing to rest upon this Convocation Meeting.
A. C. BOURDEAU, D. T. BOURDEAU.
We design to hold meetings as follows: Hartland, Me., or where Eld. Goodrich may appoint, Sabbath and first-day, Aug. 4 and 5; Brewer, Me., or where the brethren may appoint, Aug. 11 and 12; the following week one of us will remain to hold meetings in that vicinity, if duty seems to demand it, the other will return to spend Sabbath and first-day in Norridgewock; and Aug. 25 and 26 we will both meet the brethren in Portland, or where they may appoint.
The interest in this region to hear upon the present truth is still very great. We have used our time and strength to the best advantage that we were capable, since coming this way. The good work is certainly making some progress. Hereafter we hope to labor much of the time elsewhere.
J. N. ANDREWS. D. M. CANRIGHT.
