ring during the interim of conference.
This was our first visit to Brush Val
ley and the interest manifested by the
people in our meetings, the hospitality
extended, and the good will shown,
gave us very favorable impressions, and
cause us to look forward with much in
terest to the synOdical meeting appoint
ed for this place next. September. The
work of conference throughout was
harmonious and pleasant, the meetings
instructive and profitable. The preach
ing was we'll received, the communion
considering the rainy weather was we'll
attended. and the children's meeting Il
grand success. Altogether this meet
ing was one of the most harmonious
and fruitful of good results, which 1t
has been our privilege to attend since
