Universaist and Congregational churches
uniting their services is the idea which was
started last Sunday evening in West Somer-
vile, Mass, when Rev. George W. Bcknell,
d. D., Universalist minister of Cam bridge,
occupied the pulpit of the Day Street Con-
gregational Church. The services will be in
the nature of joint revivals, and will be par
ticipated in by the members of both churches
This is the first time in Massachusetts where
churches of these two denominations have
united in their services. The idea meets
with the general approval of the attendants
at both churches.
The executive committee of the Maine
Free Baptist Association met April Sth in
Brunswick to arrange the preliminares for
the approaching State meeting, which occurs

the consideration of requests from churches
for financial assistance, and appropriations
were made to Fort Fairfield, West Buxton,
La Grange, Island Falls, Limestone, Chester,
West Paris, and to the Ellsworth Quarterly
meeting. The reports from the treasurer
and the State agent indicate a favorable
condition of the churches, and better state
of the treasury than might have been ex-
pected when general business is in its pres
ent condition.
