it were great drops of blood. I also
said and appealed to the citizens if
one of the Protestant preachers pres
ent was an old bachelor and were to
get fine, vigorous good looking,
buxom woman as a housekeeper and
were to set up housekeeping alone
without being married that the citi-
zens would not put up with it twenty
four hours. I also told the officers
who had sworn to enforce the law
that said such things could not be
done in this country, that they too
would bring that preacher into court
and deal with him according to the
laws of the country. And yet would
suffer that priest to live there in their
town with one of the best looking
women in the town without being
married to her, for which there
could only be two reasons, either
they were afraid of the holy Father,
or believed him more holy than other
men.

ing exempt, never lose sight of
the fact that through the temporary
triumph of wrong, the eternal plan
is being perfected. There is no
wasted effort. No heroic struggle is
ever lost in the long economy of the
Infinite. Not in vain do we suffer.
Through the mystery and travail of
tribulation, is our mettle proven, our
patriotism purified, our fighting
qualities strengthened.
The onward sweep of civilization,
if it teaches men anything, teaches
that the momentary triumph of evil,
is inevitably followed by the over
whelming destruction Of the forces
of evil. Georgia has not surrendered
the peoples fight! 1t is just begin
ming! With clearer vision and
purer purpose the untrammelled
citizenry of the great Southern En-
pire State, will rally at the ballot
boxes again and again. They will
fight and fight on, until the justice
and liberty for which free men will
always be willing to die, shall be
ratified in our State and National
Governments.

they thought I was gone, Mr.. Crane,
the resident priest began to circu-
late Mr.. Noll's pamphlet containing
his challenge. But when he learned
that I was still in San Angelo he be-
