The Illinois Tent.

By T. M. Steward; R. F. Andrews

We are now at this place with our tent. We came here directly from our Camp-meeting at Nora. The Lord, by his providence, directed us to this place; yet we do not see any very flattering prospect, unless it is that Satan is at work to shut up the minds of the people, and raise a prejudice to keep them from hearing.
Our congregations have been small, and the clergy of the place do not deign to even come and see our tent. Yet we trust in God, who made heaven and earth, and shall try to live near him, and do our duty, leaving the result with him. If any of our scattered brethren in Illinois know of any good openings for tent-meetings, will they please write us immediately at Earlville, Lasalle Co., Ill., so we can decide where to go when we leave here.
