Camp-Meeting at Lucas, Wis.

By Samuel Fulton; John Olive; E. E. Olive

THERE will be a camp-meeting held at Lucas, Dunn Co., Wis., commencing May 29, and holding until June 3. Eld. Grant, president of the Minnesota Conference, and some of the Minnesota ministers, will be there. We hope every Sabbath-keeper in the district will attend, and every Sabbath-keeper within fifty miles, and as many more as please to come. This meeting is to be held in the “Wisconsin Corner” of the Minnesota Conference, and is held in the special interests of Dist. No. 5; and it is greatly desired that all our new brethren, all the scattered ones, and all who have been unable to attend the general Minnesota camp-meetings, will avail themselves of the advantages of a meeting near them. There are several small companies within twenty-five miles of Lucas, and these should all attend if possible, as they may never have a general meeting so near them again. One of the large, forty-foot tents will be on the ground, and all who cannot bring tents can lodge in that. Let all who can, bring tents; but let none stay away because they have no tents. There will be hay and straw on the ground. Bring bedding, provisions, and grain. Be sure to bring your overshoes and plenty of wraps, as it may be cold and wet part of the time, and, if so, winter clothing will be needed.

Brethren, let us come up to this feast, praying that the Lord will meet with us. All should be on the ground Thursday, and come to stay as long as the meeting may hold.

SAMUEL FULTON, JOHN OLIVE, E. E. OLIVE, Committee of Arrangements.
