    Conference at Rocky Hill, Conn

    This conference was held at Rocky Hill, the meeting room being a large, unfinished chamber in Brother Belden’s house. The following extract from a letter written by Elder White to S. Howland, gives some interesting particulars respecting the meeting:—GSAM 267.2

    “April 20 [1848], Brother Belden sent his wagon to Middletown for us and the scattered brethren in that city. We arrived at his place [Rocky Hill] about four in the afternoon, and in a few minutes in came Brethren Bates and Gurney. We had a meeting that evening of about fifteen. Friday morning the brethren came in until we numbered about fifty. These were not all fully in the truth. Our meeting that day was very interesting. Brother Bates presented the commandments in a clear light, and their importance was urged home by powerful testimonies. The word had effect to establish those already in the truth, and to awaken those not fully decided.” 2Life Sketches of Ellen G. White, 108.GSAM 267.3
