New York

By S. H. LANE.

WE are now running five tents in this State. The meetings are fairly well attended. Our canvassers are doing well. They are selling from five hundred to eight hundred dollars' worth of books each month. Their deliveries are good. They sold three hundred and six dollars' worth last week. Some good souls are embracing the truth.

We have purchased a school farm of two hundred acres, and have it paid for. We held the Tunesassa local camp-meeting on it, and the campers cleared, during the meeting, nearly six acres of the land. We now have two acres and a quarter in potatoes and buckwheat.

Five persons were baptized at the close of the meeting. There were about one hundred and fifty in attendance. The meetings were of a deep spiritual nature. The only drawback to the meeting was the almost constant rain, but all were cheerful and happy. On Sundays the outside attendance was good, considering the falling rain. One young lady living near the ground became deeply interested, and desired to embrace the truth; but her father threatened to turn her away from home if she did. However, she was baptized. S. H.
