MICHIGAN CONFERENCES.

At a meeting of the brethren of the Battle Creek church, April 7th, 1861, it was decided that several Conferences should be held in this State this spring in order to better accommodate the brethren in different portions of the State, and at the same time avoid a greater collection at any one place than can be comfortably entertained. Also that said Conferences be held in season to make suitable arrangements for the Tent Season, their time and places as follows:
Wright, April 19-22.
Battle Creek, " 26-29.
Hillsdale, May 3-6.
Each conference to commence at 2 P. M. of sixth-day.
It is expected that preachers in the State, as far as possible, consistent with other duties, will attend these Conferences. Bro. E. W. Shortridge of Iowa is expected at the Conferences at Wright and Battle Creek. If brethren in any other localities desire a Conference they will please send in their request.
It will be expected that sisters who are feeble, and children, will not be brought a day's ride to these meetings, and that these assemblies will not be disturbed by ungoverned children.
The brethren of the Battle Creek Church also voted to extend an invitation, in behalf of the churches and brethren in Michigan, to Eld. M. Hull, of Iowa, to move his family to, and make it his head-quarters at Battle Creek, on conditions to be specified by letter.
In behalf of the church,
JAMES WHITE. URIAH SMITH.
