Hold the Fort, fer Am Coming.
In October, 1854, AlIatoona Pass. a
defile In the Mountains Of Georgia, was
guarded by General Corse with 1900
men, It was a strong strategic point
and. moreover, a million and a half
Of rations were stored there. Fresich,
the southern general, with 5000 men,
attacked the garrison and drove the
defenders into a small fort on the crest
Of the hill The battle was fierce; the
northern soldiers fell in such numbers
that further fighting seemed folly But
one OF Corse's officers caught sight Of
a white signal flag huttering in the
breeze on the top OF KenesaW Noun
tain, across the valley, fifteen miles
away. The signal was answered, and
then came the inspiring message from
mountain to mountain: Hold the
fort; am eoming.-W. T. Sherman"
Cheer after cheer went up, and though
hopelessly reduced In numbers they
did hold the fort for hours until the
advance guard OF Sherman's army
came to their relief Six years later,
P. P. Bliss, the evangelist, heard the
story in all its vivid detail from a
soldier friend, and then wrote the
words and music Of this famous hymn.

The great hymns Of the world that
have touched the hearts Of many thou
sands have usually been the expression
OF a vital individual experience They
have not been written as mere pieces
OF literary composition; they have
been the crystallizing Of personal sor-
row, personal 'aith. or personal reali-
ration. They'll e been the summing up
Of years Of bop and struggle, focused
IN an instant expression, as the
century plant 81 -es up vitality for
decades to be evidenced at last In
sudden Towering. The circumstances
that inspired some OF our great devo-
tional hymns must deepen the interest
in both the song and the singer aid
reveal that mighty kinship Of human
souls, that divine sympathy, that con-
fers deathless fame on a few simple
verses, soul-biographies living in song
This greatest Of hymns was written
in 1775 by Rev. Augustus Toplady, a
very learned English divine, who died
at the early age OF thirty-eight The
hymn has the rare. wondrous spiritual
ecstasy he revealed In his daily life In
his last illness he said: Il cannot tell
the comforts that feel in my soul;
they are past expression Il will not
be long before God takes me; for no
mortal man can live after the glories
which God has manifested to my soul"
