We are interested In those who have made it what it is. What part have th© McNeils played? The question will be an swered in these articles and cov ered from the beginning by Rev. George McNeil, the first one of the name, who settled in Wilkes county before the Revolutionary war and will embrace his de- .scendants down to the heads of families in this day. Who then are the members of the McNeil family?

Ed O. Miller. Rev. Johnnie Luffman, of Elkin, a young min ister. They surely did bring the message from on high to the peo ple, both saint and sinner. Mean while, other preachers came in and participated with them in the good work and lay members from other churches came in to aid in prayer and song. Believe me, folks were made happy in the Lord. There were enough doctrinal and exortation- al preaching done during the 10 days and nights to save the solid world were It obeyed. They all preached the truth and the truth has never been beaten. There wer© nine young folks who con fessed their sins to the Lord, and everyone arose shouting the praises of God—six girls and three boys joined the church and were baptised. But there were so many young men who stood aloof'from the al tar and from their Savior. They certainly were warned faithfully of the danger - f procrastination. The brother preachers were not Paul and Silas, but I believe they are their equivalent in doctrine and faithfulness. May God in His infinite wis dom and mercy devise some means yet by which those who would not come to the altar, will see the danger of living in sin, and repent of their sins and live a life that counts.
