The meeting which began At Che
Baptist dllBroh last Sunday week il
SILL progressing and showing signs
q I'D increase IN Interest. Eld. R.W.
Merrill did the preashing last week
unit Sunday at the IL o'clock service,
when EId. G. w. Tomkies preached.
Eld. Merrill occupied the pulpit on
Sunday at the 7.30 service. On Mon
day night four persons were baptized.
The congregation steadily Increased
last week until Sunday night, when
itreached the climax, having packed
house. THE Gospel has.becn preached
with power and tue congregations
have been orderly and quite earnest.
An interest is being manifested On
the part Of Christian people of all de
nominations, and this interest is deep
ening and taking hold, and with the
united prayers Of all Of Gods people
in this town, and with daily preaching
of the the word with power, good re-
suits are expected.
Ed. Joel 4. Dawes, pastorin charge
Of the Methodist church, though not
situated so he could attend regularly,
was present on several occasions. On
Saturday night he announced in the
church, that he would dismiss his con
gregation at the II o'clock services on
the day following, with the request
that they would all come down and
worship together Sunday night. This
was very commendable in him and
showed his great christian heart and
sympathy, and prayers had gone ont
for the advancement of the work of
winning souls to Christ. Elders Tom
kies, Merrill and Thompson are doing
earnest wctk--are stirring the town
with their zeal, and there is a feeling
that already Permeates the christian
people that they are on the verge of
a glorious revival of religion.
