The Danvers Meeting.

By Dudley Marvin Canright

FROM Friday to Monday, Jan. 18-21, is the time set for our State quarterly meeting at Danvers, Mass., in connection with the dedication of our new house. We are all pleased with our house. The work has been done in the best manner, and everything about the house is neat and pleasant. The Sabbath-keepers here are getting along well. We have excellent meetings. We now begin another course of lectures in our new house, to last three weeks. We hope to see good done.

We are very anxious to have a large turnout of our people at this meeting. Let all come who can. Danvers is eighteen miles north of Boston, on the Boston and Maine R. R., and also on the Eastern R. R. There are several trains each way, on both roads, daily. Let all who come go directly to our meeting-house. It is but a few rods from the Boston and Maine depot. A committee will there wait on them.

Let our friends bring bed clothing, as far as they can conveniently, so as to make beds on the floor if necessary. But let none stay away fearing they will burden us. The friends here are able to take care of all who may come. If any come with teams, they will find good places among our brethren living three miles out of town, on good roads.

To the T. and M. directors we say, Be sure to have a good report at this meeting. Don't fail this time, any way. If possibly you cannot come, be sure to send your report the Monday before. D. M. CANRIGHT.
