Tent Meeting at Rubicon Wis.
By J. Hart; E. Everts
Our Tent meeting that commenced at Rubicon 5th Inst. closed on the 7th, and we had meetings in two districts on the 8th in school houses. We had as good attendance on the Sabbath as we could have expected, met some brethren from a distance, and it was a sweet season and one of interest. On First-day some three hundred were present, and a good degree of interest was manifested. Three ministers attended; two we conversed with, who apparently were convinced of the truthfulness of our position. A number confessed the truth, and some gave encouragement to obey. We were urged by some who had much prejudice at the commencement of the meetings to stay longer. From this effort we can say, from what is manifested already, that some good is still in store for bleeding Wisconsin. The weather was beautiful. The brethren were humble and good. We were sorry not to meet Bro. Loughborough. Brandon, Marquette Co., Wis., June 9th, 1857. P. S. Our next meeting we intend at Mackford Marquette Co., some nine miles from Brandon depot on the Milwaukee Horicon and Waupun R. R., or about twelve miles from Fox lake, to commence on the 12th, and probably continue over two Sabbaths and First-days.
