Florida Letter.

Hampton, Fla. Nov. 80, 1905.
Editor Enterprise.
Will you permit me space in
your valuable paper to say, that
| am here in Hampton, in a good
meeting.
And many are the words of
kindness which I have received
since came, for preaching the
plain gospel. Some of your
readers will remem Der hearing
me speak of Hampton as the
town in which I lived seven
years. Ohers of them, will per-
haps call to mind hearing the
charge that I busted up the
church in Hampton Fla, before
I came to Fitzgerald. The very
fact that there never has been
any division in the churches
here. and that the ruling elder
ia the congregation wrote me
before left Fitzgerald inviting
me here, is a sufficient answer to
the charge | am as ever,
w. E. Daugherty,
Evangelist.

Much of the misrule of our
cities grows ont of the fact that
christians neglect their duty
as citizens, 10 array themselves
against each other becoming the
pawns of men, who are worse
than men whose bank is the

If it is the duty Of the chris
tan to raise one man up, it is
equally his duty to thwart those
influences, which are dragging
another man down.

It passes the comprehension of
mothers how any set of fathers

| ly place a premium on the ruin of
heir own daughters by that dis
grace to civilization called the
age of consent" "at which a fe-
male may consent to the viola
tion of her own person, which
average, in this Christian land,
by laws enacted by chivalrous
CD men, the age of fifteen years.
For the following list we are
indebted to A. A. Powell aud Anna

Are the fathers who pass such
laws drunk or insane? When
can a girl legally consent to hon
orable marriage? At ten yearsf
The fathers stand aghast. AT
twelve years? Do you think
that this legislature is composed
of set of fools? We do not let
our babies get married" At
thirteen years? At fourteen
years? At sixteen years? No,
indeed! We as fathers are deter
mined to protect our daughters
from men with intentions of hon.
orable marriage till they are
eighteen years Of age. Any man
who takes away one of our daugh-
ters seventeen yeas old and mar
ries her without our consent IS
guilty of serious crime, and will
be sternly punished. But the
man who commits a rape upon
our little girl of ten, or thirteen
years of age-why, that is trlv-
ial matter, and if he swears that
the child consented, we fathers
arrange it so that he can go SEQ:
free. Of course gentle man(D
who would outrage a little girl
ten or twelve years of age, would
BE- sure to tell the truth on the
witness stand? A man OF such
noble character would scorn to
com NIT per jury! Men who do
deeds do not usually choose a
crowded thoroughfare where
witnesses might prove that the
little one resisted to the utmost
her assallant of five-fold strength.
And when a big, burly man of
fifty years of age is brought into
a court of justice aud confronted
by the little ten year old victim
of his lust, if he can prove that
the child, for a paper of candy,
consented to an act of which her
childish mind is ignorant, that
