One of the largest and most successful revival camp meetings ever held in this town was brought to a close last Sabbath evening by the Rev. Messrs. COUCH and YARWOOD. It was gotten up under the auspisces of the Methodist Church, and has caused quite a commotion among our residents. The reverend gentlemen were ably assisted in the good cuase by Mr. TEMPLE of Oconto Falls, Mr. John TRECARTIN and others of Maple Valley and Messrs. A. WILTON, W. WILTON, F. DOWEN and H. JOHNSON of How. There was a large attendance during the three days of the meeting which was held for three days in Mr. Henry JOHNSON's grove, who kindly gave the committee the use of the grove for the occasion. It was a red letter day here, and will be long remembered by those who took part in the proceedings, Mr. COUCH being popular with the people here. May the good work soon bear fruit.
