The Lynehites 1T Southport

The Southport Standard of Thursday
October 7th, says:
w have been told that all the women
of the 'Sanctifed Band" Who are here
without their husbands, lave been eject.
ed from their homes by cruel husbands
One. Geo. N. Smith, sends US affidavit
to the effect that he and his wife had
lived together peaceably for thirteen
years, until the Band" induced her to
follow them, leaving him and two chill

We take the following correspondence
from the Standard of the same date:
Wash Woods. Va. September 80, 1881.
Editor Southport Standard:
Please allow me space in your paper
for one more letter in reference to the
Lynchites. and I shall bother you no
more.
In the Standard OF the 2srd inst. there
is a communication that seems sQuarely
to take issue against me. on my letter
that appeared in your paper on the 18th

I for one am surely pleased to hear
that Lynch has visited one place. in his
wanderings. that he has not caused the
people to rise against him. and his &C.

people ave found no fault with Lynch
and his free loveism." perhaps Lynch
has conveniently changed his teachings

teach that a wife should leave husband

father refused S~anctification? And that
adultry was no sin between those that

Lynch preached and taught the above,
