excellent address from this pastor DIR. Damon, by
invitation Mr.. Hallenbeck made few parting re-
marks in which he stated that lie never felt -
burdened for souls ~ at the present time
And Witnessing as he did the anxious gathering
hungering for 1.-The TRUTH, he realized the presence
of the Holy Spirit in our midst. Ho desired an
interest in the prayers Of Gods people, that he
might be an humble vessel fitted for the master's
use and If we did not meet again here, no prayed
that we might meet at the throne of God.
