time on he was an earnest worker
in the Army. Shortly after his
conversion, he came to Portland.
where he entered the training de-

garrison there he advanced from

lieutenant. About six months la

preached at house and street meet

clever man in a high degree, but
he was looked upon as being above
the average. His pleadings had
effect and many additions were made
to the Army during his work.
Because he was man of ability
he was then placed in charge of

Some of the past history of cref-

land newspapers. A sample of it is
given in the following from the
Portland Telegram:
Members of the Portland branch
of the Salvation Army know Cref-
field we'll, but now they refrain
as much as possible from even
speaking of him. 1t is hard to get
any information from them about
their former brother. They tell
some facts, but only on close ques-
tioning. When Ensign Maud
Bigney and Captain Bertha Hole
man were seen yesterday they told
an interesting story of the Apostle.
Their story follows:
It was four years ago this sum-
mer that Edmund Crehield, a ma
tive of Germany, was led to see the
