TO MEMBERS OF N. Y. & PA. CONFERENCE.
By Conference Committee
We have a word to add to the many appeals that have already been made to the brethren generally, to attend the camp-meetings the present season. The times are hard, and it will require a great effort on the part of some if they come to this meeting; and yet we believe it will be pleasing to God if all who can possibly do so will make this effort and attend the camp-meeting. We need the benefit to be derived from such a meeting and the labors of those who come to work for our good, and we hope that none will allow any trivial excuse to keep them away. The interest of the work at Rome, where our meeting is to be held, is such as demands that all that can be done to make our camp-meeting a success should be done; and this cannot be accomplished unless, in the first place, all manifest their interest by attending it. All who can do so should supply themselves with tents, but let none stay away because they are not thus provided for, as provision will be made for the accommodation of such. To those who wish to rent tents we say, be in season with your orders. All orders should be sent so as to reach Rome by Tuesday, July 29, in order that they shall be sure to receive attention. We would especially call the attention of the brethren of the northern and north-eastern part of the State to the fact that the meeting is more favorably located for them to attend than they can expect it will be again for some time to come, and we hope they will make a special effort to improve this favorable opportunity.
