Note from Bro. Bates.

BRO. WHITE: The church in Monterey is laboring for order, union, and fellowship one with the other. Sabbath July 2, was a good, quiet, peaceful, rest-day of the Lord. One more was baptized and added to the church.
Yesterday, Sabbath, 9th, according to appointment, was the monthly meeting of the churches in Allegan Co. A goodly number of brethren and sisters from Monterey, Allegan and Watson, met with the church at Otsego, and enjoyed a refreshing from the presence of the Lord. The subject of the soon coming of our blessed Lord and Saviour was their soul-inspiring theme. Testimonies were sweet, cheering, melting and convincing. Two youth, and a mother for her absent son, were prayed for by request. A number expressed their joy for the good union meeting. Praisethe Lord.
The next monthly meeting was appointed to be held in Watson, the second Sabbath in August.
JOSEPH BATES.
