don't call this fellow Hall com
mon "cur Of low degree" because
am in full sympathy with the $50
cicty for the Prevention OF Cruelty
TO Animals, and | and all my fam
lily love any kind Of dogs-except
bull dogs, they always remind me oi
prize fighters and prlests-and
don't want to do injustice to dogs,
by the odlous comparison, but as
think about the cheek and gall and
insolence and impudence of this
Campbellite preacher Hall, my boot
just wants to kick 50 bad that / can
hardly keep It down on the floor.
Kick Hall clear out OF the calcula-
tion and put in his place little Jack
McGarvey, the chief cook and bottle
holder Of all the Campbellites on
earth, to debate with Ingersoll, and
what would we have? Alittle Irish
man who did not have enough brain
to make priest, or enough mus
Gle to make a policeman, and who
just compromised by appointing
himself the Aguinaldo OF all the
Campbellites-a man whose life has
been devoted to one grand central
idea that the way to get rid OF sin
in the world is to walk out into
horse pond with. Campbellite
preacher aud wash it off-a man
who has lately written book the
sole and only purpose Of which was

Just think Of having a whole
preacher in your stomach for three
days and nights! Poor whale
II Bob Ingersoll should conde-
scend to debate with little Jack Nc
Garvey, would walk out behind Bob
and kick him clear over the foot
lights, and the Infidel world, In rec
ognition of the service to humanity
would send me l, 100000 subscribers
to the B. G. B.
One OF the cats that Hall says has
Iugersoll to debate is
Prot" Clark Braden. This Rev
erend 'Professr" Braden is the fell
low that was selected by another
Campbellite preacher, R. B. Neal
to debate with me. l was pleased
with the suggestion and at once
opened correspondence with him,
and got letters from him which as |
now recollect, had repeated instan-
ces OF bad spelling In them and other
ignorance that comported with his
authogrophy, and as vile and abu-
sive as he knew how to write It.
| said to him then, as l say to him,
today, that as the case stands I would
not debate with him, but II he will
get the endorsement OF any of the
prominent clergy OF his church, or
my other church, / am ready TO
meet him, oral or written, any day.
II | fight lion / gain some glory
wen II get whipped. II l fight a
'kunk | am bound to be worsted.
