ments that nothing be lost" Briefly REFER
ring to the circumstances Of the text, and
making the point that while Jesus was a

lost" from these blessed, hallowed infiu-
ences. , ~ 80

earnestly appealed to each class to see to It

among the unconverted than for years, and
that now Is the time to put In the sickle and
reap a golden harvest. He closed by touch.
ing reference to the fraternal relations exist
ing between the pastors OF the city, and
urged that this shall continue. jaas

then made some earnest, practical remarks
to the afflicted, illustrating them with a
touching incident.
DR.. Hoge alluded to the discussion in the
papers OF Great Britain as to tie practical
results of MIR. Moody's great meetings there,
and the practical conclusion reached that
the results were glorious wherever the pas
tors and churches had properly followed up
the work OF the evangelist. And he urged
it will be in reference to these meetings.
the pastors and churches must gather up
the fragments.
Rev. w. N. Scott, j. B. Watkins, ESQ.,,

in prayer. and the special requests were re-
membered
