From Sept. 28 to Oct. 1, 1860, there was a general meeting of our people from Michigan and adjoining States, held in Battle Creek. At this time there was a full and free discussion, and a careful consideration of the subject of legal organization for the purpose of holding the office of publication and other church property,-meeting-houses, etc. As the result of these deliberations it was voted unanimously to legally organize a publishing association, and a commmittee of five was elected by those assembled, that such a corporation might be formed as soon as practicable.
