German Camp-Meeting at Endicott, Wash.
By G. E. Langdon
THE camp was located not far from the station on a nice plot of ground belonging to the railroad company, which gave us the use of the grounds free. There were about one hundred encamped, and several families drove to and from the grounds each day. The German laborers were Elders G. F. Haffner and H. J. Dirksen, together with our own conference laborers — Elders H. J. Schnepper and C. F. Knott, and Brother John Oster. The blessing of God came into the meetings in power, and sixteen took their stand for the Lord and were baptized. The interest from the outside was good. One family that left the faith four years ago, made a new start, and subscribed for our church paper and the Youth’s Instructor. There was quite an interest awakened among the Americans, so an English meeting was held each evening from eight to nine o'clock, the German meeting being held from seven to eight. Elder A. J. Breed was here one day, and presented matters of interest concerning Walla Walla College. Several of the young people are planning to attend. Since the close of the general camp-meeting, services are continued both in German and in English. Several acknowledge God's claims upon them, and we trust they may be fully converted to him, and yield to the working of his Spirit. G. E. LANGDON.
