Iowa and Neb. Camp-Meeting
And as ye go, preach, saying, “The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” 269 Services in Chicago, every Sabbath (seventh day), at 260 West Erie St. All Sabbath-keepers spending a Sabbath in Chicago are invited to attend. Iowa and Neb. Camp-Meeting.
The place for our next camp-meeting will be the same as last year, Newton, Jasper Co., Iowa. We leave the time for the General Conference Committee to appoint. We suggest the first of June as the time that would meet the expectations of nearly all. Bro. and sister White are cordially invited, and doubtless expected by all who anticipate attending. Preparations will be made for a large gathering. We shall be greatly disappointed if we do not have the largest and best meeting ever held in the State.
