SPECIAL MEETINGS IN BATTLE CREEK.
By Uriah Smith
DURING the past week five special meetings have been held by Bro. and Sr. White with the church in Battle Creek, more especially for the benefit of the students, many of whom return to their homes at the close of the present term. These meetings have been well attended, our large house of worship being nearly filled, and have grown in interest to the present time. Increasing numbers have come forward for prayers from evening to evening, until last evening, June 23, more than one hundred signified in this manner their determination to start anew, or to start for the first time, in the service of God. Ten have signified their desire for baptism, and others will doubtless go forward. The Lord has given his servants freedom and clearness of thought. Other meetings are appointed, and we look for a good work to be accomplished. U. S.
