GREAT REVIVAL HAS CLOSED
Meetings Conducted by Rev. Critten-
ton at Methodist Church Accom-
pIish Much Good.

One of the greatest religious reviv-
ais Dawson has ever experienced came
to a close Sunday night.
The meetings were conducted at the
Methodist church by Rev. Charles N.
Crittenton, the merchant-evangelist of
New York, and from his first appear
ance here two weeks ago the people
of every denomination have been very
deeply impressed by the preaching of
the pure and simple gospel by this
cOnsecrated man. A Christian, philan-
thrOpist, humanitarian, friend of the
fallen and unfortunate, giving his
fortune and every mement of his time
to preaching Gods word, and neither
asking nor expecting compensation
save that of a duty we'll performed,
the people have followed him with a
profound and enthusiastic confidence,
and much good has been accomplished
by his visit.
Three services were conducted each
day-a mems meeting at the court
house at 1850 a. M. and preaching at
the church at and 1870 p. m. Large
congregations attended each service.
Thursday was observed as a mid
week Sabbath, and practically the en-
tire day was devoted to religious
meetings, beginning with sunrise
prayer meeting at six o'clock.
Taken all in all, the revival has
been spiritual blessing to Dawson,
and the influence for good impaired
by Mr.. CrittentOn will be felt in all the
churches.
Mr.. Crittenton LETT Monday for
Americas, where he will conduct a
revival.
