Wisconsin Tent Meetings.
By D. P. Hall
WE have now had four meetings in Tent. The first at Johnstown, about eight miles from Milton, where Dr Babcock resides. It was rainy in the morning and we despaired of having much of a turn-out; but about 800 attended. Our next meeting was in Whitewater. Here we had a very rainy time. Our congregations varied from 200 to 500. From this place we went to Palmyra. Here we preached seven times in Tent. Congregations from 150 to 600. From this place we proceeded to Axtalan. We preached five times in Tent. Very hard rain during most of First-day, which prevented people from coming. About 300 attended. Our Tent-meetings up to this time, have been as well attended as we expected. Our Tent enterprise has received as much favor from our friends as we could expect, yea more. We have already preached to more people than we could have done during the entire Summer without. We go from this place to Albion, into a large Seventh-day Baptist community. D. P. HALL.
