COLORED CAMP-MEETING.

The following is a reduced facsimile of a poster for a colored camp-meeting (size 22 x 14½ inches), just received from Nashville, Tenn. Of this poster, Elder J. E. White writes as follows:—

“As a matter of curiosity I send you a copy of the first poster that was ever issued by Seventh-day Adventists for a colored camp-meeting in the South. I have desired to see something of this kind for a number of years, but until this season it has been impossible. We shall not be able to have a large camp-meeting at this time, but we thought it was best to make a start. It will be held at Edgefield Junction, where we have a little church, and in the yard of the church there is a nice grove, and also at Brother Lowe’s place. So between the two we shall have room to pitch our tent. It is a little late in the season, but we shall have stoves in our tents, so I think it will be quite comfortable. We are praying that this may be a success. “J. E. WHITE.”
