Note from Bro. Ingraham.
By Wm. S. Ingraham
Bro. WHITE: When I returned home from the North I found the people were very anxious in Exeter to have a Tent Meeting. Boards for seats had been furnished. I could do no better than to pitch the tent. I have now been here over two Sundays, and have never seen better attention and larger congregations for this season of the year. Last Sunday I preached three times on the Sabbath question; after the close of my third discourse I took a vote to see how many believed we had the truth on the Sabbath. A large number arose, so many that I did not try to count them. I then called for a vote in favor of Sunday-keeping. Only three arose. What the result of the meeting will be I cannot tell yet. I have to do all the preaching myself, being alone. Bro. Decker takes care of the tent. I expect soon that Bro. Andrews or Steward will join me. Exeter, Wis., July 18, 1865.
