To Our Brethren in Maine

By S. J. Hersum

Your attention has been called to the fact that our camp-meeting is to be held this month, in Milo, Maine. Those going over the Maine Central Railroad will purchase tickets at the following-named stations: Portland, Lewiston (upper station), Skowhegan, Shawmut, Fairfield, Waterville, Brunswick, Richmond, Augusta, Pittsfield, and Corinna. Those coming from Bangor will purchase tickets over the Bangor and Aroostook Railroad. Portland and Richmond are the only stations where tickets can be purchased through to Milo and return. At all the other stations the tickets will be sold to the Northern Maine Junction at the rate of 1¾ cents a mile each way. Do not fail to mention the fact that you want a camp-meeting ticket when you ask for your ticket. There will be no grocery tent on the ground. A grocery team, a baker’s cart, and a milk cart will come on the grounds. Come prepared to care for yourselves. Do not fail to bring your winter clothing, and bedding enough to keep you warm nights. Remember you are going to camp-meeting, and not going to a church. We shall try to have plenty of straw on the grounds with which to fill the beds. If you have a tent, bring it with you. Come prepared to care for yourselves as far as possible. There will be a boarding tent for the visiting ministers. The camp is about ten minutes’ walk from Milo station. There will be teams for transferring the baggage from the station to the ground. All delegates should be on the ground Monday, August 19. Take the train that leaves Portland at 11:05 A. M., via Lewiston. At Richmond, take the 11:42 A. M. train, and change at Waterville for the Northern Maine Junction.

S. J. HERSUM, President.
