Jackson Conference.

By Editor

This meeting was held Apr. 20-23. It was not large, but was one of much interest. We were happy to meet our dear friends in Michigan. Bro. Curry and some others, we had never before seen. We had the pleasure of being a hearer most of the time at this meeting, and were much refreshed by the testimonies of brethren, especially in social meetings. Our meetings of business, and consultation in regard to the interests of the cause, and future plans of labor, were spirited and of deep interest. Perfect harmony prevailed. The brethren have a mind to work. Bro. Cornell has already more than half the necessary means raised to obtain another Tent for Michigan. It will soon be decided whether two Tents can be manned out in this state this season.

Brn. Stephenson and Hall of Wisconsin, were present at this meeting, and improved most of the time in preaching the word. Bro. S. has returned to prepare for Tent operations in Wis., while Bro. Hall remains to attend the Conference at Battle Creek.
