WESTERN CAMP-MEETINGS.

By George I. Butler

KANSAS, Emporia, Lyon Co., May 22-29.

Missouri, Nevada City, Vernon Co., May 29 to June 3.

Missouri, near Winstonville, Daviess Co. (on the farm of Bro. Mallory), June 5-10.

Iowa, near Fairfield, Jefferson Co., “ 12-17.

“ “ Indianola, Warren “ “ 19-24.

“ “ Dunlap, June 26 to July 1.

The exact place of some of these meetings may not be given, but if there are changes they will be mentioned in season. I expect to attend all of them, and other help will also be present. Bro. and Sr. White are expected without fail at the Kansas meeting. Bro. Farnsworth will most likely attend the others with me. The camp-meeting which it was expected would be held near Gallatin, Mo., is changed to the place above mentioned on Bro. Mallory’s place, at the earnest request of leading brethren in that section. Passengers should come to Winstonville, and teams will be provided to take those who come in the cars to the camp-ground.

Once more we request our brethren in Missouri to make a general rally. It is not probable that I shall be able to attend the annual meeting in the fall, and it may be a long time before I shall have another opportunity of meeting the friends of the cause in that State in camp-meeting again. We have many things we wish to say to them. We very much desire to see all our brethren and sisters in the State at these meetings. As the late General Conference have requested me to attend many camp-meetings this summer, I shall get but a few weeks at best to labor in Missouri. Therefore, I desire that the more of our friends should turn out. I cannot possibly visit many of the churches in the State. Come out, and seek God at the camp-meetings.
