Maine Camp-Meeting.

By J. B. Goodrich; G. W. Barker; Wm. Morton

THERE can be no reduction of fare obtained on the railroads to our camp-meeting. Ample provisions will be made for horse keeping at reasonable prices.
A boarding tent will be on the ground as usual, where refreshments can be obtained.
Those coming by railroad will purchase tickets to Pishon’s Ferry. Ministers will please call for clergymen’s tickets, as they can come on the Maine Central or the Portland and Kennebec and other branch railroads, for half fare.
We hope to see all on the ground this year on time. Let none excuse themselves from coming, for we all need the instruction, benefit, and encouragement that can be derived from such a meeting. When we are favored with the labors of our able ministers from the West, none should remain away who can possibly attend. Make the meeting a special subject of prayer. Let all wrongs be made right, and let the work commence now, so when we come up to the camp-meeting, we can be prepared to take hold of the work of God in earnest, and work for the salvation of others. We want to see the best camp-meeting ever held in Maine. Come, brethren and sisters, make the effort, and God will bless. CAMP-MEETING COMMITTEE.

Maine State Conference.

The Maine State Conference will hold its next annual session in connection with the camp-meeting to be held one mile above Pishon’s Ferry, on the Portland and Kennebec R. R., on the same ground occupied last year, commencing Aug. 28, and continuing to Sept. 1. Let all our churches in this Conference immediately take the necessary steps to fully represent themselves, by delegates; also, let all see that their s. B. pledges are paid up to Sept. 30, if possible.
“Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of Heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.” Mal. 3:10.
We earnestly request all to see that their tents are put up, and things set in order, and be ready to commence with the first day of the meeting and remain until the close.
