The quarterly meeting of Dist. No. 8, Mich., was held in Orange, July 6. The meeting was one of interest to all present. The object of the Tract and Missionary Society was set forth by the Director, and all seemed to feel to some extent the importance of the work before us. After the reading of the Secretary’s report, pledges were called for from the Director for the Delinquent Fund. (This call was for the benefit of those who were not present at the tract meeting held at Greenville by Eld. S. N. Haskell, June 14 and 15.)
Pledges were received amounting to $35.60. This, in addition to what had already been pledged, brings the amount for the District to $511.60, $184.60 of which has been paid. Several shares were also taken in the school fund. The T. and M. Society in this District reports as follows:—
