Mr. Moody is not preaching in Rich
mond Tor money.
The salvation Of the souls OF men and
women is the reward for which he is
laboring, and he has neither been pro-
missed or expects pay for his services.
Al doubts on these points were set at
rcst Sunday night when the wonderful
preacher in simple and frank terms told
his audience OF over 5000 men that he
came here 70 help rescue the perishing
and not for any pccuniary consideration.
This declaration led up TO the most sig
nal indication yet given Of the high os-
tcen and confidence in which the cvange-
list is held IN this community. While
making his statement MIR. Moody was
interrupted by Dr. Hatcher, who saih
that when the great meeting of nine years
ago closed MI Moody was presented
with "a parse OF N.eo. which he immtdi-
atc,y turned over 90 tho NounS Men
