The Seventh-day Adventist Camp-Meeting.
THE Seventh-day Adventists have just begun their Vermont State Camp-meeting, State Conference, and State Missionary meeting in a beautiful grove about one-half mile south of Essex Junction. The ground has been neatly prepared, a speaker’s stand erected, and seats prepared to accommodate a thousand or more persons. Around these, in a complete circle, are pitched forty-three new, white cotton tents, each 16x18 feet, and two large circle tents, one 40 feet in diameter and the other 60 feet, in which meetings will be held if it rains. Tent companies from the following towns are encamped upon the ground: Berkshire, Enosburgh, Bakersfield, Irasburgh, Charleston, Westmore, Sutton, Burke, Wolcott, Johnson, Eden, Cambridge, Bolton, Jericho, St. Albans, Bristol, New Haven, Warren, Granville, Huntington, Starksboro, Roxbury, Richmond, Jamaica, and Sutton and Compton, P. Q. The ministers present are Elds. A. C. Bourdeau, A. S. Hutchins, L. Bean, D. T. Evans, and C. W. Stone, of Vermont. From abroad are Eld. James White and his wife, Mrs. E. G. White, of Battle Creek, Michigan, and Eld. D. M. Canright, just from California. Eld. White is the leading man among the people, is one of their ablest ministers, the president of most of their institutions, the editor of three weekly papers, and the author of various books. Mrs. White is a remarkably talented woman and an eloquent speaker. With her husband she attends their large State meetings, and preaches with great acceptance. She will speak several times during this meeting.—Burlington Daily Free Press.
