Texas Camp-meeting for 1879.

By James White

We should probably remain in Texas until May, 1879, and should expect to meet the brethren scattered in that great State in General Camp-meeting before our return. Our objects in spending about five months in Texas are,—

To escape the cold weather in Michigan.
To enjoy a pleasant and healthful climate.
To finish writing important works which have been long delayed, and which are very much needed, and,
To attend a General Camp-meeting and to organize a Conference.

Will Bro. Kilgore correspond with us relative to a comfortable home in a healthful location? The brethren may expect that we shall meet with them only at large meetings where several churches and our scattered brethren gather. It is necessary that the testimony of both of us, but especially that of Mrs. White, be heard in all new fields. As a glorious beginning is made in Texas, the time has fully come when we should visit that State. J. W.
