-' ~@NoS ~ SEE rev. y. IL. Butler,
who is to Be one Of the next Bishops
Of the African Methodist Episcopal
church, entertain the Central Texas
conference and then be elected one Of
the delegates to Louisville where he
will put on the finishing touch. He
has been a hard worker and has re-
NAMED right there in the midst of FIRE
from below and erected Metropolitan
church for the people and now he is
ready to hear the sweet sounding
words, wen done thou faithful ser
want come Up higher and enjoy your
self on the episcopal bench He is
right where he can hear the Lord call.
If all the people who said they
prayed for me while l was in the
Lane hospital in San Francisco did
pray as they said, then they certainly
did trouble the throne, and the Lord
heard them and here / am today out,
yet l am not out Of danger, for you
can never tell about that big disease,
"Myocarditis" which | have even now.
But / am going to stay in touch with
Dr. George Cleveland Hall, for he is
some "myocarditis," and "aortis" bug
fighter, and when they are whispering
among themselves he has his whisper
ing trumpet listener and he can just
hear what they say and tell them
'You are lying, am going to fool
you one more time" We hardly
know what we have produced in the
past fifty years. God help Us on up
the road.
! have been riding just little since
l left the hospital, but the Lord knows
have not tried to overdo the thing,
but am just going right on and on
until I reach the other land. | have
been able to avoid night riding, and

| was in Marshall, Texas, stopping
with DR.. M. w. Dogan, Wiley college
when ! wrote you that other letter,
and | tell you ! enjoyed being in col
lege and with that great man. He is
one more great man and is doing
things, believe me, honey They had
Just a little excitement while | was
there, but it was stopped at once by
the boys. You see, they had assem-
bled in the chapel Sunday evening, and
President Dogan was presenting me
to them students to talk a little BIT,
when there was some distressing
screams from female voices. and we
all listened The whole student body
jumped, and started for the door
when President Dogan gave COM
mand, Take your seats, girls" While
they were excited, yet every girl
obeyed, and then he told the boys to
20 and see what the trouble was and
report back to him
The boys Of Wiley have the repu-
tation Of being fire fighters and / be-
lieve if you would just turn them in
on the devil, they would soon have
| his FIRE out. They walked out two by
two, double quick time, and in ten
minutes were back It was just lit
tie fire in the girls building, and they
blew it out in few minutes. and with
smiles on their faces, with an express
4 sion, eve have subdued the enemy,
behold the victorious soldiers return
ing from battle" They have fine
set Of young people at Wiley, and i
want to congratulate President Dogan
upon getting together such selection
Of brains. 1t took thinkers to COM
pose themselves like the young peo-
pie did on this occasion.

ing through Texarkana. Mrs. Duclde
! Kennedy, having heard that I was go
ling through, was at the stable to see me
| 20 through, with hot pail Of chicken
soup. and then she had boiled
chicken in all his glory, hot and ready
| for my chicken eternity. She did not
stop at eats, but she had large bou-
quet, and wanted to say that the peo-
Die Of Texarkana had been praying for
me, and they were delighted to know
that / had been able to return to this
country without making the trip to
heaven from the Golden Gates Of
California. She said that she was ex-
pressing sentiment Of ali the praying
people IN the city. Rev. J. M. Harris,
pastor Of the Eleventh Street Baptist
church Of that city, II you viii remem-
Der. went to heaven from California

ton. and they did not want me to 90.
When I reached Little Rock, $50,
