Quarterly Meeting at Washington
By Stephen N. Haskell
THE Quarterly Meeting at Washington, N. H., was one of interest, and, I trust, profit. The brethren seemed to feel the importance of putting forth a greater effort to overcome. A good representation was present from South Lancaster, Mass., New Ipswich, Blakeville, and Amherst, N. H., also the isolated ones in that section. We were much cheered by the presence of Bro. Cornell, and by his preaching. He had ordered a tent to be made in Boston, to cost about $500.00, and was waiting for it. A subscription paper, with $220.00 already pledged, was presented by him, and $17.50 was pledged and partly paid, at this meeting. Since then I have also received pledges for $47.20 more. There is a mind to work among the brethren in Southern New Hampshire and Massachusetts. They stand ready to pay their own expenses, run a tent if thought best, and have an interest in every department of this work. Besides the above, I have received in pledges, a portion of which is paid, on the Foreign Mission fund about $100.00. At this meeting I was chosen treasurer of the tent fund. Brethren wishing to pay their pledges, or others wishing to subscribe on the tent, can direct to me at South Lancaster, Mass. In due time the money received will all be credited in the REVIEW. I now go to Rhode Island. S. N. HASKELL.
