Live Oak Revival

The revival which has been go
ing on for several weeks at the
Live Oak church, five miles south
of Ocala, closed Sunday night.
1t has been a remarkable gath
.ering and many souls have been
con verted.
The meetings. were largely in
the hands of Rev. Fletcher, a
student of the Conference College
at Leesburg, ably assisted by
Reverends Steinmeyer and Freer.
Mr.. Fletcher's preaching was
soul melting and is spoken of by
those who had the pleasure Of
hearing him as being simply won
derful.
He is struggling to secure an
education and fit himself for the
ministry, and with Ii purpose
worthy of his high and holy re-
solves, during the college session
labors every Saturday and after
school hours to earn money to
accomplish his purpose. A col
lection was taken up last Sunday
to assist him. Twenty-Five dol
lars were asked for, but the con-
gregation, in their ad miration for
the struggling student and his
zeal, contributed $50.
1t was d glorious revival and
the neighborhood is happy over
it's spiritual experience.
