that they all believed In heaven. He did,
however, cite several passages to prove
what heaven was like. 1t is place of
peace and harmony, joy and righteous
ness, he said. Nothing foul or unclean
could enter there. Heaven was the logi-
cal result Of righteousness, just as hell
was the result Of sin. There could be no
hell without heaven. He related sew
eraI anecdotes Of deathbed scenes of vari-
Gus prominent persons who had seen
visions of heaven as they died.
He warned his hearers not to drive
their tent pins too deep and to think
more of heaven, for the time would soon
come to all when things of this world
would be left behind. He said 1t was
really easy to get to heaven, and told
an anecdote of finding an old darkey In
one of the garden spots of California who
was shining shoes and trying to get
enough money to get back to Arkansas.
DR.. Munhall says he told him the way
was fifteen hundred miles and there
were horned toads, ella monsters, snakes
and all sorts Of Obstacles in his way, but
the darkey said he was gwine back et
he had ter walk de whole way" Asked
why he was anxious and determined to
return, he said 1t was to be with his
people This is why we should want to
go to heaven, he said. Many or our re-
1atiyes. our dear ones and friends have
gone and we should want to return to
them.
The meeting resulted in number OF
conversions, although DR.. Hunhall was
laboring greatly under a severe cold and
there were several Interruptions to his
discourse during the evening, one LADY
fainting and having to be carried out.
