GREEN BAY (WIS.) CAMP-MEETING.
By W. S. Shreve
A local camp-meeting was held at Green Bay, August 20-26, and although the usual crowd was not present, on account of heavy rains, the Lord came near and blessed his people as they listened to the stirring truths presented by his servants. The preaching was both practical and doctrinal. Fifty tents were pitched, and occupied by about two hundred and seventy-five persons. Elder L. A. Hoopes was with us during the entire meeting, and Drs. Paulson and Giesel, and Professor Magan were with us part of the time, together with some of the State laborers. As the different phases of the message were presented, there was manifested a willingness on the part of the people to co-operate in carrying it forward. Nearly two hundred and fifty dollars in money and pledges was raised for the tent and camp-meeting fund. Twenty-two persons were buried with Christ in baptism. The outside attendance was good; and our people returned to their homes feeling that the Lord had visited his people.
