Washington Grove.-At the regular

quarterly gathering of the Washington
Grove Camp-meeting association it was de.
cided to commence the next meeting on
August II, and continue it for fourteen
days. There have been some handsome
improvements commenced and now in a
forward state of completion. A fine hotel
has been erected, and will be ready for oc-
cupation by the opening of the camping
season. The centre is three and the wings
two stories in height There are twenty
three sleeping-rooms, a fine parlor, dining
rooms and kitchen, the latter 26xS0 feet and
24x24 feet respectively, with high ceilings.
The construction has been carried on under
the superintendent of Mr.. Willett, who
also drew the plans, and other members of
the committee The cost will be considera-
bly, under $4,000 from this circumstance,
but the building when completed will be
worth fully that sum. The hotel will be
under the charge of Mr.. Wash b. Williams.
One fine new cottage has been erected on
Grove avenue, the thoroughfare from the
camp to the depot, for Rev. William Bur
ris, and several Others have been arranged
for on adjoining sites. The store has been
rented to Mr.. Seitz, who had it last season.

in the hotel, the old dining court has been
demolished. The camp grounds at present
are looking their best and by June lst
number of families will be located in the
cottages for the season.
