Mass, preached at 2 p: m. from Reyeia-
tions % II. He that is unjust, let him
be unjust still 49,. And he that IS holy,
let him be holy still: =. E II. - >. y
The theme was: Character formed
on earth by deeds and faith in Christ
will find its proper place and receive
it's proper reward in the world to come.
His promises. were well taken and
sustained by the logic of Scripture and
presented with an earnest delivery and
an eloauence of utterance that pleased
the people and gained their attention
and sympathy, and: held them to the
last words. 1t is spoken of ia high
terms by many as one of the best ser
mons ever preached on Spring Grove.
His eloquent and most eloquent sermon
is deserving a more extended abstract
and notice, but limited space makes II
simply impossible This Rev. Halburd
is an only son of Rev. D, P. Hqiburd,
and is the worthy son of a worthy sire.
Happy be his life,and late may hereturn
into heaven. s.-s '.....5. -.
S In the evening at 1870, there was
preaching again, but as, we have had
some personal difficulty with the one
who preached, we feel under no personal
obligation to mention him or his effort.
At the close Of the sermon, Rev. Mr..
Hulburd exhorted and several persons
arose for prayers.
Prayer meetings were held in. seyera
tents till after ten o'clock, and several
conversions were reported Monday. -.
At $50 a. M, a social meeting was
held at the stand led by Rev Brother
Shank.
At later hour Rev. j. w. Bennett,
of Tinmouth, preached aplain, practical
Scriptural sermon from Natl i, 81 :
"Thou shalt call his name Jesus, for He
shall save his people from their sins
| The sermon showed the office and
/ power of Jesus our Saviour, AMI the
privileges and obligations of his people
MONDAY.
/ In the afternoon Rev r. J. Davis
preached from the words, abide il
/ Me.
The necessity of abiding in Christ il
order to have spiritual life and fruit
was shown by the connection of the
fruitful branch t. the living vine. The
sermon was good.
The congregations yesterday were
small, as most Of the people left fol
home in the morning.
Thus closed one of the largest attend
ed and most interesting meetings at
: ring Grove
The place and meeting has more sym.
pathizers and supporters than ever b.
