large number OF penitents presented them
selves At the altar. and 8 number profssssd to

This morning. prayer meeting was held at
the stand. and similar meetings were held at
some of tho tents. Rev George V I.aech of
East Washington Church, is now occupyiug
tho pulpit.
The crowd which was here yesterday held
on until about tsundOwn. when large numbers
OF those who came from the citie. returpaS
but the night being clear, with a fall moon
many Of the country people from a distance
remained until afler the services were closed
This morning, as is usual on the morning fol
