CHRISTIAN gentleman, and Such we be-
leve him to be-"
The Complexities and the Baptists
agree in saying that ducking is the
right way to baptize, and that the
Methodists are all wrong about it, and
yet here is the Campbellite Zachary
debating against the Methodist and
defending the Baptist style of Bap-
tism, and these Baptists decide in fav-
or of the Methodist champion, and
against Zachary, and they say that Pi-
que, the Methodist, is a christian
gentleman" and do not say this about
Zachary.
The Eye-Opener prints this piece
from the Tennessee Methodist in or
der to get to come back at that pa
per.
Five times. in his article, the edi-
tor speaks of the number Of signers as
"25" when there are 30.
He accuses the Baptists of going
over to the Methodist in the following
language:
The unmixed truth in the case
is, that the Baptists and Methodists
will stick together Nike twin brothers
and resort to any kind of means. fair
or unfair, in order to down those
whom they blindly stigmatize as
"Campbellites."
Abiding to Zachary's episode with
the cook woman the Eye-Opener says
Someone, not satisfied with the
Baptists going back on their own doc
trine and practice, started an infa-
nous lie on Bro. Zachary and had a
poor orphan girl to swear to 1t. in or
der to down the character of Bro.
Zachary

1t winds up, with his own spelling
as ows
Bro. Zachery simply put fly in
Methodist and Baptist gravy, and it
made both parties so continental sick
that they have to throw 'em up or die

1t spells Zachary's name three ways.

The next piece in the Eye-Opener is
also marked, is from preacher nam
ed lambeth. He went to Sandy Ridge
to preach and found that the brethren
there were using an "organ," and he
gives them h. He would not let
them blow the thing while he was
there. and he advises his brethren OF
the anti-organ faction to withdraw
themselves from the organ grinding
gang, they being heretics that the
New Testament says all good Chris
I tians should shake.
What they call an organ is one OF
these big accordeons stuck up on legs
that you work by tramping the thing
with your feet, like the niggers and pc
white trash have around Lexington,
and that makes a noise like combin-
alton of "juice-harp" and buzz saw.
The scrap over the "organ" started
here In Lexington between two Camp
bellite preachers. McGarvey, a little
Irishman, and big fat cuss named
Coils, who came from Australia and
is probably descended from the con-
victs that the English used to send
! there. McGarvey. the anti-organ cham
pion got kicked out.
