got home Saturday after visiting
Sequachee Friday, was much i'm
pressed with Sequachee and the people
Imet while there. enjoyed myself
at the News office and was very much
surprised at it's equipment which was
certainly ahead of anything Of Local
nature had ever seen. My visit tc
the parsonage was certainly one shall
not forget soon. l really enjoyed the
cottage prayer meeting. Oh, am sc
glad young lady has taken upon her
self the duties and obligations of chris
tianity and the church. AS it was he1
first effort at public prayer, hope she
will persevere, and I make sure God
will open unto her broader and wider
fields in his vineyard Of love- / am
glad I never heard the slightest sound
of confusion or strife in the little val
ley city, and was glad Bro. Gannaway
was having the preliminary service to
a great revival. Thank God for an
active, energetic, wide awake minis
try that is seeking to better the condi-
tions of life among the human family.
I really enjoyed the meeting up at
Whitwell with the exception of the
two last services. was sorry the
preacher made the mistake of referring
to some silly criticism made by some
silly. thoughtless person that amount
ed to nothing and would have done
no harm if let alone, but in his zeal
for his friends from another point, he
made the mistake that his friends did
not relish. At least, did not, so
wanted to get away just as soon as
possible. / don't believe any real
gentleman or lady in all the valley
would have uttered anything OF the
kind referred to, and l am sure and
quite positive that the good people
who had invested their money, put in
their time and labor and were respon-
sible for the meeting were in any way
or manner responsible for what was
said, and were as much panied as
was at it, The silly twaddle of an I'M
bridled tongue hurts good cause in
spite of all its friends. ! should not
have mentioned this at all, but as pub
licity was given it on the platform and
was the first intimation had of any
throw off on my people, and for the
sake of all those learned to love and
respect, refer to it as uncalled for
and unnecessary.
Work is awful dull here at present
and rain rain
expect should I learn that the
meeting at sequachee is going ahead,
l would drop into it for there is moth
ing like better Somehow believe
a great meeting is going to be held
there and Bro. Ganaway will be bless
ed and owned by the Father above.
