WHAT is THE SABBATH?
DOES REV. J.B. DAWSON SPEAK TRUTH?
Criticised by Alex. RitchIe--Rey. Dawson
Challenged.
To THE EDITOR OF WooD COUNTY

To THE EDITOR OF WOOD COUNTY
REPORTER.
DEAR SIR:-In the interests OF
truth and righteousness, 1 desire to
speak few words through your
columns to all who love the truth,
and especially to those who were in
attendance at the Methodist church
last Sunday morning, when the Rev.
j. b. Dawson Of Milwaukee, spoke On
the Sabbath question. | did not go
to criticise, for I had no idea Mr..
Dawson was to speak, and being an
ship with the good Methodist brethren,
having heard their pastor had returned
and would preach that morning. How
ever found Mr.. Dawson there instead.
L noticed he steered clear of all refer
ence to the question of what day is
the Sabbath, and in doing so, actually
went so far as to start to read the
Fourth commandment in the middle
OF 1T, just after that portion of it
which declares in unmistakeable
language that the Seventh Day is the
Sabbath of the Lord.
In the course of his sermon. he re-
ferred to the antiquity OF the Sa Obath,
and told US that in the very city where
ADraham was brought up or lived.
tablets had been found describing the
prevalence of abbathkeeping there.
but the speaker declared that it was
the 18th, 18th, 21St and 18th of the month
that was kept, without special refer
ence to the day OF the week. and at
this point he made his only reference
to the time when the Sabbath should
be kept, and am sorry to say in doing
this he made statement utterly
devoid OF truth, and incapable of
proof, as l shall demonstrate. This
statement was that because these
heather people, with whom Abraham
lived (fOr even his father was heather
and an idolatorl only kept four Sab
baths in month, and skipped the
remaining days Of the month SO far
as Sabbath keeping was concerned,
that in consequence of this, the Origi-
nal seventh day, which was blessed,
sanctitied and hallowed at creation,
had become entirely lost, so that no
one knew which was the seventh day
now.
In connection with this the speaker
referred to those who claim that the
Sabbath ought still to be hallowed On
the seventh day. and of course these
are the Seventh Day Adventists and
the Seventh Day BaptiSts. Therefore
as a representative OF these people l
feel it my duty to speak. Let us
briefly examine these statements. In
the first place the Sabbath those
heather kept, in the country where
Abram was reared was the Sunday
Sabbath. I affirm most fully that it
was not the Sabbath of Jehovah.
Therefore they felt at liberty to keep
but four Sabbaths in month. Abram
could not and did not do this, for
this kind Of Sabbath keeping would
Involve the deliberate dissertation Of
at least four Sabbaths every year, but
Abram did no such thing as this, for
God declares of him. abraham
obeyed my voice, and kept my charge,
my commandments, my statutes, and
n,y laays." Therefore Abramham
kept fifty-two SaboaUhs every year
and not four month. Therefore
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1902-09-25
also he did not lose track of which
dav was the original Sabbath Day.

udt Was Uue original SaDDatn Day.
But this is not the main reason why
Mr.. Dawson is so.wofully wrong. The
two greatest reasons of all, are because
it was after Abraham's time that
the God of heaven descended In flam-
ing fire upon Mount Sinai, and pointed
out and commanded the keeping of
the genuine original. creation Sabbath,
the Seventh Day that was kept in
Eden, and he confirmed the Dag by
the 5000 or 5000 miracles each year for
40 years, which Mr. Dawson said so
much about, but the force of which
all falls on his own theory of lost
Sabbath with crushing weight.
For those 5000 miracles per year
were all performed to make it forever
certain which day was the Sabbath
Mr.. Dawson would have grown thin
on bis Sunday keeping arguments in
those days, because believing ia Sun
day as holy day he would of course
not have gathered mamma for two
days on Friday as Israel did, and on
the Sabbath of the Lord there was
none, so he could not have gathered on
that day, and would have to go hun
CRY. Then the next day being Sunday
of course be could not go out and
gather on that day, for that would
have been Sabbath breaking, and So
he would have to fast again. 1 fancy
he would read over the Sabbath COM
mand pretty carefully after an expert
ence or two like that, with special
reference as to what day was COM
manded.
The second great reason why his
lost Seventh Day statement was
incorrect, is that not only did God
proclaim it on Sinai but his dear Son
our Lord Jesus Christ who came to
reform everything that was wrong.
did not utter word about there being
anything wrong with the day which
was being kept as the Sabbath, and
this he certainly would have done if
it had been lost or changed.
And lastly Mr.. Dawson demolished
his own theory of lost seventh day.
by urging everybody to uphold the
first day, and here is the most incon-
sistent thing of all about this Sunday
sacredness, for if the seventh day has
been lost how can anyone tell which is
the First Day. How does anyone
know which day is the day upon which
Jesus rose from the dead? Thus we
have no Sabbath at all according to
this theory. But mark it, these
teachers who shut their eyes to the
plain truth Of an unbroken seven tn
day Sabbath, and complain because
we who teach its binding claims upon
the authority Of Gods word, are so
particular that the day that was
hallowed is the day that we ought to
keep, these same men are if anything
more particular that the day they call
the Sabbath, must be kept, the very
day. the Identical day, no other will
do. 1t is the day they preach about,
the day they honor, the day they ask
the law to uphold. But it was the
serenth dan God blessed, the seventh he
hallowed, the seuer1th he rested upon,
and that it has not been lost, and
that we still have the very dav that
was kept in Eden will gladly demon
strate both from the Bible and from
Science, on any platform offered to
me in this town, at any time, or at
any place.
Very respectfully yours.

BOSTON. Dec. SIN an accident on
the Boston and Albany road at Brook
line avenue and Beacon street during
the night, caused by the engine of a
Newton Circuit train jumping the track
and turning upon its side, Engineer S.
b. Jones was killed, Fireman Hawley
and three passengers were more or less
hurt and the rolling stock badly
damaged.
The train. consisting of engine and
three coaches, left South Terminal at
1l.30 p. II. and was using Track No. g.
instead OF No .. as usually is the case.
1t is thought this change may have
caused some confusion In setting the
switch for the train and caused the
engine to leave the rails.
The engine rolled over upon its side,
plnionlng the engineer under It. and for
more than half an hour he lay there
giving directions to those who came to
his assistance. Meanwhile steam from
the boiler was pouring upon him and
before he could be extricated life was
extinct. Hawley, the fireman, was
thrown from the engine cab.
