 It wasn't many seconds before ev- cry eye in the tabernacle. except the evangelist who continued drawing a cartoon, was on the strange figures clad in the unusual garments and hoods There wasn't a move nor a sound except the report of two flash lights as cameras took pictures of the crowd and the strange visitors.
 Mount Platform
 In the death-like stiffness the four gowned and hooded figures advanced to the platform. Mounting the plat. form and raising their arms. the four figures awaited the evangelist who then turned and stared in amaze ment as he was handed an envelope by one of the four.
 The four strangely clad and hooded figures then turned and as slowly re- traced their way back down the mid dle aisle. opened the door and dis appeared. During their leaving. the big audience had been as deathly silent as before
 The Rev Mir. Jeter then opened the envelope which had been given him and read the letter it contained to the audience. It was an follows:
