done without forcs OF fifty men work
ing night and day, and as his workers
were almost worn out and many taken
SICK, he finally concluded that he was
mistaken and God only Intended that
Part OF the building should be finished
this year. The "Gates of Praise were
to be all up by Aug. 18th, when thous-
ands were expected to come and pour out
their possessions in the hands OF the Lord
