Report Of their Meetings thus
far held in Lancaster The
Services are being we'll At
tended and Much Interest
Manifested.
Reported for The News.

In the order of Gods unerring
providence, the Christian Cru.
saders are now in Lancaster, to
labor, in conjunction with the
Christion people Of various
Evangelical Churches, for the
salvation of the unsaved and the
edifcation Of Gods children OF
the town and community.
In the opening meeting, Fri.
day night, the Revs. Boldridge
Of the Baptist Church, and Tur-
nipseed of the Methodist Church
were present, and both took
part in the exercises. AS this
meeting was of a preliminary
nature, Gen. Light introduced
his co-laborers to the people,
mentioning the church with
which each is affiliated, and
they, in turn, expressed them
selves TO the honor and glory of
God, who has saved them and
called them into this soul-saving
work. The scripture lesson for
the occasion was read by Capt.
Hawks, from l Cor. 2. He feels,
with the apostle Paul, as do also
the other workers, resolved to
know nothing among the people
OF Lancaster save "Jesus Christ
and Him crucifed."
The Lord set His seal upon
the first service of this series of
meetings by enabling seven pre-
cious souls to stand upon their
feet TO make known the fact that
they would nave the prayers of
the Christian people in their be-
half.
On Saturday night those pre-
sent were much rejoiced 10 see
that ten burdened ones were.
not only willing to say "Pray
for me-" but were so much con
cerned about their souls eternal
welfare as to also humble them
selves before God at the altar,
and TO pray very earnestly for
salvation. After some time had
been spent in a~gonizing prayer,
sever Of the number were able
to state that their sins were for
given and that Gods Spirit was
bearing witness with their spirits
as TO their acceptance with
Him.
In the meeting of Sunday af-
ternOOn, Gen. Light read as the
scripture lesson, Psalm 81, and
related, Tor the information OF
the large audience assembled,
several chapters from his own
personal experience. He said
that he IS now able, and has
been for some years, to say with
King David, "This poor man
cried, and the Lord heard him,
and saved him OnI % all his
troubles" and thai "thcrc is no
want to them that fear Him
Over twenty-six years ago he
was brought to Christ, and had
