L. D. SANTEE

By L. D. Santee

CHICAGO.—The Northern Illinois camp-meeting was held as appointed, on the North Side. The interest and attendance were good, and our brethren returned to their homes with renewed zeal and a stronger determination to work and sacrifice for the Master. On account of the interest, the meetings have been continued. The family tents were left standing, and about fifty are staying to assist in the work in any way possible. Elder Warren does the most of the preaching, though the personal work and the responsibilities are shared by Elders Covert and Williams, and the writer. Twenty have already been baptized, and there is to be baptism again next Sabbath. It is hard to say how many have taken their stand with us, as we hear of new ones every day.

There is an attendance of several hundred through the week, and from a thousand to twelve hundred on Sunday evenings. We are in a good part of the

city, and there is hardly any prejudice.

The Swedish and Danish tents are pitched, and a good interest and well-filled tents are reported. There is much to be done here in this great city; may the Lord give wisdom and strength to the workers.
