Intense Interest Manifested From the

Rev. Edwin C. Glenn, if Greens

took charge of the series of meetings
now in progress at the Methodist
Episcopal church that evening.
Mr. Glenn was born in Back
Creek, hut when a small boy, his
father moved to Guilford w here he
was reared. He is a powerful
speaker and from the beginning in
tense interest was manifested. Many
professions followed at the Sunday
services and each succeeding ser
vice has witnessed the birth of many
eouls into the Kingdom of God.
Mr. Glenn preaches the truth,
simple and unvarnished. He is
plain and practical. He does not
play the sentimental! in his hearers
but presents the gospel as an appeal
to reason and with convicting pow
er. The church is crowded nt each
service and Asheboro is undergoing
a revival of religion, the like of
which has not been witnessed for
many months.
SMALL FIRE.
Damage to Central Hotel Would Have
Reunited Disastrous But For Prompt

Last Thursday Morning a fire
which came neer being a serious
conflagration originated at the Cen
tral Hotel. The fire was discovered
soon after it started and the alarm
was given. The factory whistles
soon aroused the entire town and in
a few minutes the fire fighters, arm
ed with buckets and axes, began to
battle the fiend. By quick, thought
ful work advantage was soon gained
and the flame controled. The
damage done the bu:lding and
furniture was small as compared
with what would have resulted
bad the brigade lost coiitrol.
Mr. Spencer, who was at Carthage
on the day of the fire, desire
through the Courier to express his
sincere gratitude to the people of
Asheboro for their efforts to protect
his property during his absence,
without which he would have lost
heavily.
