MINNESOTA CONFERENCE.

By John Bostwick

Bro. White: Our conference has just closed, with a large attendance. Some brethren came from 100 miles distant, which was more than we expected, as the weather was very cold. We have made arrangements for running the Tent the coming season. Pledges have been made to sustain the Tent operations. We have made arrangements for you and sister White to attend conferences in this State in the spring. Money will be ready to defray your expenses from Mauston, Lynxville, Wis., or Wawkon, Iowa, which places you will doubtless visit. I suppose Bro. Andrews will labor in connection with the Tent, with the understanding that the Tent shall be in Northern Iowa a part of the time.

The cause is onward in this State. I am now going to Caledonia, Houston Co., this State, near La Crosse, Wis., to commence a course of lectures in that place, the Lord willing. The brethren are doing nobly for the cause. That the blessing of God may rest upon us all, is the prayer of an unworthy brother.

John Bostwick.

P. S. Bro. White, we are in need of a general assortment of books in this State, especially on the Messages and the Life and Death question. Which do you think would be the best plan, to forward a package by express, or as freight, to La Crosse, Wis., where I could easily get them? I leave it with you whether it is best to send any or not.

J. B.

We shall immediately send a box of books to John Bostwick, La Crosse, Wis., by Railroad.
