said it was the greatest revival
held anywhere in North Georgia
in recent years. Thirty-nine were
received into the Methodist church
and about sixty others converted.
When the meeting came here there
was not more than four or five
people who would lead in public
prayer, while now we have three
different meetings which are SO
largely attended by willing work
ers that even in the boys and
young mems meeting, it is neces-
sary to take it in a regular order,
so that all who are willing may
take part in the services. 1t was
a meeting in which all denomina-
tions worked together for the up
building of the Masters kingdom
on earth.
