MEETINGS IN THE EAST.

By George I. Butler

At the special session of the General Conference last Spring, it was recommended that I should labor several months in Maine, Vermont, and in the New England Conference, and also spend some time in Canada with Brn. Fulton and A. C. Bourdeau. As I am but little acquainted with the condition of the cause in these localities, and know not the P. O. address of those who understand it best, I take this public method to solicit correspondence with presidents of Conferences and leading brethren, as to the time and place of meetings, that I may plan to the best advantage. It was suggested at the Conference that I should be present at all the State camp-meetings held in these States, and hold several other large meetings besides in each Conference in central locations, where we could reach the most of our people, and do what we could to advance the cause of truth. It was thought best that I should go about the middle of August, and remain east until cold weather. It is fully time that we should consider the question of the Eastern camp-meetings, therefore I request that those interested write me at once to Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, that appointments for camp-meetings may be made in season.
