TENT MEETING IN ORONOCO, MINN.
By John Bostwick
Pursuant to notice, our tent was pitched June 5. This meeting bids fair to be a profitable one, though very discouraging at its commencement, there being a number of meetings held by the nominal churches; but a few honest ones were willing to turn out and hear our views; and for the last ten days the interest has been steadily on the increase. Last Sabbath, four were buried with Christ in baptism, and yesterday, four more. About ten have made up their minds to keep all God's commandments. We shall not be able to fill our appointment at Lake City till about the fourth of July. I came to this place to-day, and found Bro. Andrews here. He is now going to Oronoco to help us through with our meeting there, the interest being too good for us to leave. Bro. Allen is still with us. He returned yesterday from Cherry Grove, where he has been laboring with some success, some ten or a dozen having embraced the truth. Everything at present bids fair for an interesting campaign with the Minn. tent this summer. And now, brethren of Minn., do help on this work by handing in a third of those pledges at the earliest opportunity. An unworthy laborer in this blessed cause.
