Convocation Meeting.

ACCORDING to the decision of the Illinois and Wisconsin Conference, the Lord willing, there will be a Convocation Meeting held at Dell Prairie, Adams Co., Wis., commencing Thursday, July 23, at 9 o'clock A. M., and continuing over first-day, the 26th; we hope to see a large attendance, especially of our brethren in Northern Wis. Dell Prairie is four miles north east from Kilbourn City, on the Milwaukee and La Crosse railroad. As there are but few brethren at this place, we would recommend that those coming with tents come prepared to help take care of others, as there will be more or less scattered ones coming that cannot come prepared to take care of themselves, and we want such to come.
We would be glad to see forty tents on the ground. Come, brethren, break away from your cares, and enjoy this feast. It is high time we were making a special effort to draw nigh to God. There will be an opportunity for baptism during the meeting, and it would be well for those who come desiring to have this ordinance administered, to come with a recommend from the church in their vicinity, or be received into the church upon condition that they are baptized. We earnestly hope Bro. J. N. Andrews will be able to attend this meeting. Let those that cannot come pray that God's blessing may attend this gathering of his people. R. F. ANDREWS, } Wis. ISAAC SANBORN, } Conf. H. C. BLANCHARD, } Com.
