Rev. r. a. Breland, Methodist
Evangelist, of Meridian, held Sc
rie~ of meetings at the M. e. Church
in Leakcsville running from Monday
to Thursday Evening, preaching both
morning and evening. Bro. Breland
has q style uniquely his own. He
parres and thrusts with a power and
directness that leaves no hearer the
belief that the discourse or certain
parts of it is meant for the other Eel
low, yet he points his utterances at
human sin. and not the person. This
affords one who lis tens the reasoning
resort that the aim is not to denounce
him but his doings This is q deli
cate difference, and does good with
out needlessly offending. Brcland to

about as much power and fitness as
any Fxpounder who has hit Leakes-
