Michigan Camp-meeting.

The Michigan State annual camp-meeting will be held at Charlotte on the ground occupied last year, Sept. 13-19.
It is decided that all tents should be erected on or before Wednesday the 13th, so that the religious services can commence in the evening of that day, and that no tent should be taken down until Tuesday, the 19th.
The ground will be in excellent order. Ample provisions will be made on the ground at reasonable rates for those who cannot bring provisions, and hay and grain for horses.
There will be one or more large tents on the ground in which to lodge strangers and scattered brethren. They should bring bedding, as straw only will be furnished to such.
Last year our tents numbered about fifty. The ground is enlarged so as to receive in the circle about one hundred tents. And we hope our people will be energetic in this matter, and turn out from all quarters so that we may have in the circle not less than one hundred good, respectable tents.
J. F. Carman, E. H. Root, I. A. Olmstead. Camp-Meeting Committee.

The Indiana Camp-Meeting.

Providence permitting, the Indiana Camp-meeting will be held three miles west of Fairfield, in Greason’s grove, Sept. 21-26. Fairfield is situated on the Peru and Indianapolis Railroad, forty-nine miles north of Indianapolis, and five miles south of Kokomo, in Howard Co. Teams will be in readiness at Fairfield in the afternoon of the 20th and 21st, to convey those coming by railway to the meeting, free of charge. An effort will be made to have passengers returned free. It is earnestly requested that all the brethren and sisters, as far as possible, attend this meeting, and be on the grounds in time to make themselves comfortable for the occasion before the time set for the meeting. The large Michigan tent will be on the ground; other tent room might be made of lumber. There will be a provision and feed store conducted by brethren. Bro. and sister White and Bro. Littlejohn are engaged to attend. Let all make an extra effort to come and enjoy a rich feast of good things.

Ohio Camp-meeting.

Providence permitting, the Ohio Camp-meeting will be held near the city of Mansfield, Richland Co., Ohio, Sept. 28-Oct. 3, in a beautiful grove containing about forty acres, located one-half mile north of the city, and a half mile north of the Atlantic & Great Western depot. We earnestly invite the labor of Bro. and sister White and such other help as may accompany them. We will endeavor to do all we can to relieve them from burdens, that they may faithfully discharge every duty they owe to God and their fellow-man. We earnestly invite all the churches and scattered brethren to attend this meeting. Come prepared to work for the Lord, for such opportunities come but once a year. Let no worldly interest rob you of the blessing you may receive at this meeting. Invite your friends to come with you. We are anxious that this State should be well represented, and that all will do everything they can to make the meeting a success.
There will be a provision stand and a supply of pure soft water kept upon the ground, and other accommodations will be made as far as necessary. All small companies or individuals wishing tents can, if they desire to do so, send their orders immediately with draft or postoffice order to Wm. Chinnock, North Bloomfield, Trumbull Co., Ohio, and the tents will be furnished on the camp ground ready to occupy. They can be purchased of G. F. Foster, Chicago, Ill., at the following rates: 12x16, of ten oz. duck, $36.00. 12x18, $39.20. These tents will accommodate from ten to twelve persons, are more desirable than longer ones, and were recommended by Bro. White at our last camp-meeting. The Ohio tent will be pitched upon the ground.

It is requested that each church be represented by delegates or by letter, with a report of their losses and additions during the year, and the annual amount of their S. B. fund. Let all who have reports, have them in readiness at this meeting. It is desired that all companies not organized should be represented at this Conference.
