Camp-Meeting in Quebec.

The cause of present truth in this province is comparatively young; yet its adherents and friends here think that they should have a camp-meeting this season. I have for some time been strongly impressed that such a meeting, attended by the blessing of God and the leadings of his Spirit, would be productive of great good.
The way has opened very favorably to hold the meeting at Magog, which would be a central place for our brethren in these townships. Our request is before Eld. G. I. Butler, to have the meeting held a little past the middle of August, and he has appointed for Aug. 21-26. Think we can easily secure reduced rates on the railroad, boat, and stage.
We desire to act in harmony with the advice of the General Conference Committee in this arrangement. In order to have means to make it a success, we suspend holding tent-meetings this season, to prepare for our camp-meeting. It is hoped that every brother and sister in this province will arrange to come up to the feast, and will encourage their friends to come also.
It would be cheering to all if Bro. and Sr. White could attend our camp-meeting. The brethren in Vermont are cordially invited to come; also the friends in Ontario and elsewhere who can possibly attend. Bring as many tents as possible. A. C. BOURDEAU.
