And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.

General Conference.

Providence permitting, the tenth annual session of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists will be held at Battle Creek, Mich., first-day, Dec. 31, 1871, at 9 o’clock, A. M., for the purpose of taking into consideration the general wants of the cause, and devising means for further advancing the work in those directions where the openings of the providence of God are manifestly inviting us. Let all the different State Conferences, and scattered brethren outside such Conferences, take immediate steps to represent themselves in the manner the constitution provides, and make such reports as it requires. It will be necessary that all delegates should reach this place at some time during the preceding week.
