Michigan Camp-Meeting.

By S. Brownsberger

REDUCTION OF FARE ON R. R.

For the benefit of those who shall attend the Michigan Camp-meeting, we would respectfully announce,—
1. That arrangements have been made with the Detroit and Milwaukee, Chicago and Lake Huron, Detroit, Lansing and Lake Michigan, and the Fort Wayne, Jackson and Saginaw railroads, to return all passengers over their lines free on the 26th and 27th of September, who present a certificate to the conductor, showing that they have attended the meeting and have paid full fare in going. Certificates will be furnished on the camp-ground, and signed by the secretary of the Conference. No reduction will be made unless such certificate be presented. The roads named above have very kindly granted this reduction. Others have been solicited, from whom we expect a favorable reply. The Michigan Central grants no favors this season.
2. All who do not go to Lansing via Chicago and Lake Huron R. R. will please bear in mind to check all their baggage to North Lansing, as this will bring them within three-fourths of a mile of the camp-ground. If baggage is checked simply to Lansing it will be left at the main depot, which is much farther from the grounds. The committee will make all necessary arrangements for the transportation of passengers and baggage from this point to the camp-ground, at very reasonable rates.
3. Those coming via Chicago and Lake Huron R. R. will leave the train at a station about three miles from the grounds. The committee have already completed arrangements with the hack line, to carry passengers from this point to the grounds for 25 cts. each; with 10 cts. extra for each piece of baggage which cannot conveniently be carried in hand.
As the return certificates will be good only on the 26th and 27th, it will be important that all come fully prepared to remain through the entire meeting. If any other roads grant us favors, prompt notice will be given through the Review AND HERALD.
S. Brownsberger, Conf. Sec.
