To the Brethren in N. Y.
By John Nevins Andrews
You will understand from the above notice that I remain in this State for a season by direction of the general conference committee. I now expect to resume labor in the State of N. Y. in the early part of July. It is my purpose to visit in order those churches in N. Y. that stand in need of assistance, and who desire me to visit them. This has been my business since the State conference at Adams' Center, in November last. The central and western parts of the State have necessarily taken up all my time until the meeting of the General Conference. I can say with safety that considerable good has been accomplished in the above named field of labor. It is my purpose next to visit the eastern and northern portions of the State wherever it may be proper that I should labor and to continue in each place as long as duty may demand. Those therefore who have any requests to make concerning the above named proposition will please address me immediately, Rochester, N. Y. Box 648. I would add that providential circumstances have for the present cast our lot in Rochester. As our home is no longer at Kirkville, I esteem it a privilege to express our gratitude to the brethren and sisters of that place for their great kindness to us during our residence there, and especially for their care for us during the period of our affliction.
