Ohio Camp-Meeting

Appointments.

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

Ohio Camp-Meeting.

The Ohio Camp-meeting for the centennial year will be held at Norwalk, Huron Co., Ohio, Aug. 10-15. The camp-ground is easy of access, being situated just outside of the city limits, about one mile south from the depot. Ample provisions will be made for man and beast. Bro. and Sr. White, Bro. U. Smith, and other speakers, are confidently expected. Two or three large tents will be on the ground. Come with your small tents, brethren, from every direction. Let the lonely and the poor who cannot get tents come any way. Come one, come all, hoping and praying for a refreshing season. H. A. St. John.

Ohio Conference.

The Ohio Conference will hold its fourteenth annual session in connection with the camp-meeting to be held at Norwalk, Aug. 10-15. Let all churches make their pledges to the Conference, and, if possible, bring one-half of the money to the camp-meeting. Delegates will be expected from every church, with credentials, church reports, and financial reports. H. A. St. John, } Ohio W. T. Carson, } Conf. H. H. Van Camp, } Com.

Dist. No. 1, Mich. T. & M. Society, will hold its next quarterly meeting with the church at Hillsdale, July 29, 30, 1876. Hope to see a good representation from other churches. Will Bro. Root meet with us? S. D. Salisbury, Director.

Ohio T. & M. Society.

The Ohio T. & M. Society will hold its fifth annual meeting in connection with the camp-meeting at Norwalk, Aug. 10-15. Secretary, treasurer, directors, and members, this is a call for you. H. A. St. John.

T. & M. S. State Quarterly Meeting.

The State quarterly of the Ohio T. & M. Society will be held on the camp-ground at Norwalk, Aug. 9, the day before the camp-meeting begins. Secretary, treasurer, and all the directors are expected. H. A. St. John, Pres.

Vermont Conference.

The Vermont State Conference of S. D. Adventists will hold its next annual session in connection with the camp-meeting to be held near Milton Station, one station north from Essex Junction, Aug. 17-21. We hope each church will be represented by a full delegation. Every church numbering twenty members or less, is entitled to one delegate; and one additional delegate for each fifteen members over twenty.

All church clerks should report to the State secretary the number of members in their respective churches and their spiritual standing; also each S. D. treasurer should see that all dues of this kind are, if consistent, paid up to the middle of the present year, and duly reported in good season to the State secretary and treasurer. Bro. Stone will probably call attention to these items and send blanks for reports. Conference Committee.

Vt. T. & M. Society.

I would recommend that Tract and Missionary quarterly meetings be held as follows: Dist. No. 1, Aug. 6. “ “ 2, at Brownington, Aug. 13. “ “ 3, at Johnson, Aug. 6. “ “ 4, at Bristol, July 30. “ “ 5, at Jamaica, Aug. 6. “ “ 6, July 23.

Though the present quarter is short, and it is a busy season of the year, I hope the reports may show some work done, and some good accomplished in this direction. It is to be hoped that every member of this society will make some donation each quarter to keep our funds in a healthful condition. Every district now has a financial basis which should be guarded and kept alive and prospering. In connection with these meetings, we expect Sabbath meetings will be held the day previous. I may attend some of them. A. S. Hutchins, Pres.
