Gods wonderful gS9dness to me, in Day
ing blessed me with such an outpauring
OF. his Holy Spirit, and / felt that | want
ed to feStify ii ctr pfayef-meeting to
night. At first did not remember that
il was Friday morning, and that could
tsend a letter down to-day, which could
! he leadaat the prayer meeting tonight,
but this fact, soon becamelplain, and then
saw that could write you a letter
I which YOU could read to the brethren and
sisters tonight. | am 50 anxious for
/ them to know that / ann still 'hdppy on the
way, that Rly 8fai4h in1 1deara Sayiour
to do oil HIS H9ly will with us is increqs7
ing daily, and my prayer is that He will
use me- Just MS He wishes t
Il want toasay that8I amalappy in the
belief chat he sent me to- Raleigh j am
rooning with three other Populists, all
three Of them are members Of the church.
Two Meuhodists and one Baptist One
\ of the AIetholists has been sanctifed
since he has been here, | am certain, he
is gnctifed, as his testimony is too plain
to admit Of doubt THE Baptist brother
does not profess 'sanctifeaton thatT am
aware Of, hpt his walk,and converse ties
both lead me to believe that he is. a sane
titled mar-tlle other Methodist brother is
a. believerin sanctifieation, and think is
earnestly seeking it. Goodwill bless him
in His own good time, and then we will
have four sanctitied men in one room at a
hotel INOn't YOU think God must have
some object in view in bringing this
about FL want you all to be sure to pray
for me and these brethren that we may
ever he faithftii, and always ready to do
the Masters will Igthank Goa that there
rs ut least one sanctified preacher in Raj
eigh, brother Glenn, of the Central Meth
odist church, the aene brother Futile
preached in. / went there last Sunday
morning, and my soul Was greatly re-
freshed.e / knew from the very hymns he
selected that ,hea was a. }sanqtified man,
and SO | was not surprised at the sermon,
Brother Glenn has been to our room
twice. He Isl n most delightful man. and it
is pleasure to know him. He was n
banker, but realizing the call to preach,
he quit the banking BUSINESS and went to
preaching, and he is called to preach, too,
he made no mistake. fF eJeeG4
81 got up about 5 o'clock this morning
to write this letter, and shall send it
down by the hand of Senator Cannon,
who is the brother who desires sanctifi-
cation, Please ask oil the brethren and
sisters to pray for brother Cannon.
II want to say that there is at least one
other member of the Legislature who is
sanctifed, besides my room-mates; what
blessing it would be to the State if all
the members were, for righteousness
exalteth nation" and we could look for
righteous laws if we had righteous law
ma kers,
"Now, Brother Moore, be sure to read
this letter at the prayeF-meeting tonight,
and If you get it in time, please let it be
known that you have a letter from me to
be read, as want as many as can be pres
ent and bear it, and know that the Lord
is keeping me every day And the more
realize Ills win, the more blessed i feel,
and the happier ! become. Before | came
up mere, ! expected that my surroundings
and associations would probably be OF
