HUMBOLDT COUNTY.

By Robert Hare

THE series of tent-meetings held in Blue Lake during the past month, has just come to a close. The interest and attention throughout have been very good. The attendance has been regular and well sustained, reaching on the last night of meeting to about two hundred and fifty. Twelve have taken their stand to keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus, and many others are convinced that the Scripture position is the true one.

A Sabbath-school has been organized, and will be superintended for the present by Sister Baxter, of Arcata. Brother and Sister Coolidge remain for a few days at Blue Lake, and will then go to Eureka on their way to the Oakland camp-meeting. We trust that the Conference will send workers to Blue Lake and Arcata, as both places are greatly in need of help.

It is with mingled feelings that the writer takes his farewell of Humboldt. Four months' work in that county has resulted in the formation of many pleasant associations both with place and people. The brethren and sisters have been more than kind, and the hours spent with them in social worship will never be forgotten. R. HARE.
