Are YOU acquainted with the Rev. Geo
H. Ball of Buffalo, y. y. - was asked.
Yes, sir, he is pastor of the Free Bap-
fist church of Buffalo, one of the leading
churches of that denomination in the State
of New York, and in fact, Of the United
States"
"lIe is then IA minister of character and
good standing
"Dccidcdly. DR.. Ball is II leading divine
in the Free Baptist denomination. He Is
II man of fine culture, unquesIioned and
unqucstuuablc integrity, one of our best
writers, being the author of several stan
dard ethical works. and holds II high place
among the clergy of the country.
The Rev. Jordan was at this point shown
a copy of Rev. Balls letter aud asked if
he knew anything pertinent To the matter,
therein contained.
II know nothing at all about the Clevc-
land scandal. and am somewhat surprised
to see that DR.. Bah has declared himself
in this manner upon the subject. ! VIII
say, however, that lac is not Il man Ia
make statements of this kind or any other
unless he is absolutely sure of the facts,
Dr. Ball is in no scns"a politician, ANA |
am sure, has no personal ends to subSrrNc,
what Mr.. smith Says.
Rev \. \. Smith, editor of the Free
Baptist, was also seen, ana substautlatcd
the testimony of Rev, Jordan. In addi-
ton he said
DR. Ball has lived nearly all his life right
in Buffalo, where this matter originated
and probably knows what he is talking
about No one can question his integrity.
He has been trustee of llillsdalc college
for long time was editor of the baptist
