Potter Brook, Tent No. 2, July 1.—We held our first tent-meeting here June 21, with a congregation of fifty. We have now held eleven meetings, and the interest has increased, so that at our last meeting the tent was filled, and many came who could not find seats. We are in the midst of a first-class farming community, and the people attend from the surrounding villages. We expect to have a strong influence to contend with among no-Sabbath Adventists; but in God we trust. We earnestly desire the prayers of God’s people, that truth may triumph, and that our labors may be blessed to the salvation of souls. J. G. SAUNDERS. P. KENT.

Knoxville, Tent No. 5, July 8.—We commenced meetings in this place June 28. Have given nine discourses to congregations ranging from 75 to 300. Our average attendance is about 150. The interest to hear is apparently increasing.

We have a good location nearly opposite to the M. E. church. We get our ground free, and also furniture for the use of our tents. Bro. Walter Graves is with us, to preside at the organ and assist in missionary work. We hope for good results. We desire a full consecration to the Lord. Brethren, pray for us. M. C. WILCOX. J. E. ROBINSON.
