Directions for Reaching the Fresno Camp-Meeting.

All who come from the north by way of Stockton with teams, will find better roads if they come from Stockton to Oakdale and on to Merced by Hopeton Bridge. From Merced to Fresno the road is good, but along the S. P. Railroad between Merced and Modesto the road is quite sandy much of the way, and tho it is the most direct route, loaded teams especially will find the Oakdale road preferable.
On nearing Fresno, all teams from the north will keep the wagon road east, after crossing the S. P. Railroad till they reach the camp, which is in the northern part of Fresno.
On reaching Fresno by rail, take the street-cars for the camp-ground. Those coming over the Southern Pacific will find the street-car service the most direct to the camp-ground. We hope the electric cars will be in operation before the meeting closes, but at present only horse cars are used. The location of the camp-ground is on the corner of Blackstone and Belmont avenues; the cars run to the corner of the grounds.
Baggage will be transferred by our people who are in the business here. Give your checks to those only who have the words, "Camp Ground" on their hats. We are sure of quick and Christian service in handling the baggage.
All the principal trains of the day will be met, and night trains if notice is given in advance.
All communications relative to these matters should be addressed to H. G. Thurston, Fresno, Cal.
