TO THE BRETHREN IN N. Y.
By R. F. C.
The tent season is approaching, and it is time to be preparing for the work. It is a question whether the old tent will answer for another season. The circle is getting leaky, and needs repairing or replacing with one entirely new, except the irons. If the needed repairs are done before the tent goes out, means will be necessary as soon as they can be raised. Should the brethren in central N. Y. appoint a conference, as has been contemplated, it would be well to have it as early as possible, for two reasons: 1. To decide in season whether to get a new circle, and 2. Because the meeting would probably be better attended before the busy season for farmers arrives. It will be well, at all events, for those who were appointed committee men to raise means in their several vicinities, to ascertain what can be done for the tent cause as early as possible, both for laborers and for repairs, should it be decided to repair the tent.
