PUBLIC SYMPATHY.
Came to Afflicted Congregation from
Other Churches and from Many
CitizenS

ON every hand could be heard the
most earnest expressions of sympathy
for the afflicted congregation, who
reared the church and raised it from
debt by work ANA sacrifices that We're
truly heroic, The pastors OF the local
churches, the congregations as well,
and the citizens generally were moved
by the same feeling that it was a pity,
indeed, the overwhelming loss visited
by the fire and the accompanying de-
pressing circumstances.
