By W. M. Allen

From Bro. Allen.

BRO. WHITE: I wish to say through the Review, that I had the pleasure of attending the Quarterly Meeting at Pleasant Grove, Minn., Nov. 12. Before I arrived at the place I fell in company with Bro. Bostwick. We did not get there in time to attend Sabbath evening meeting. Sabbath morning the brethren assembled for a prayer and conference meeting which was one of interest. Often two, and sometimes three were on their feet at once. All expressed a desire to come up on higher and holier ground. Afternoon meeting, listened to a discourse from Bro. Bostwick on the subject of health-reform. This discourse was timely, and of deep interest to us all. All seemed to feel the necessity of refraining from surfeiting and drunkenness, being pure in the sight of the Lord and in readiness to meet him at his second coming.
In the evening after the Sabbath, the brethren came together at the school-house to attend the ordinances of the Lord's house. Four united with the church by letter. The ordinances were attended with deep solemnity. First-day morning, Brn. Bostwick and Morse started to fill an appointment near Oronoco, leaving me to carry on the remainder of the meetings. I spoke twice to attentive congregations. The meeting, as a whole, was one of interest and profit. May the Lord bless the dear brethren and sisters at Pleasant Grove, together with all his remnant people.
