Meeting in Vermont.

By Editor

BRO. J. Hart writes, Feb. 9th:—"As we were gathered together in a church-meeting, the subject of having you come to Vt. was spoken of, and thought best to have a general meeting at Waitsfield, calling in the male members of the churches. There are many points which it seems necessary the church should take into consideration for the spirituality of the people of God. We therefore request you to come. We have made provision for your expenses to visit Vt. We hope to see you here the first Sabbath in March. We shall expect to see you here if you can do it and not grieve the Spirit of God. If the time of the meeting will make any serious difference with you, you may make the appointment. We cannot throw out a general invitation because it is impossible to find room to hold them."

REPLY.—We are sorry to say that feeble health, the duties of the Office, and cares at home at this season of the year, will prevent us from meeting with our dear Brn. in Vt. at the time above stated. We shall be obliged to move the first of April, and till after that time, cannot leave home. We think we could meet with the Brn. in Vt. the 7th and 8th of April. The Hymn Book will be completed by that time we hope. We expect Bro. D. P. Hall [now in Pa.] to visit this State, and we think it would be for the good of the cause for him to accompany us to Vt. A definite appointment can be given in next REVIEW, after we hear from Bro. Hall, and Brn. in Vt. ED.
