From many parts of this county and else where, he received postal cards from friends with their congratulations and good wishes. In acknowledging these through his church paper, says: My health is good. Can think as well as ever though my memory has failed somewhat. In all the years of my life and religious experience, 1 have never had any more confidence in, or better satisfied with, the doctrines held and taught by our people than l have to- day. And there never was time when they were more needed to be preached by men who believe the Bible than they are today"
