Sam Jones used his own
peculiar style, now particularly
rough, now persuasive, tender
and eloquent, now scathing and
cutting now humble and
sympathetic. There is only one
Sam Jones and all imitators are
frauds and failures. Mr. Stuart
who assisted in the meeting is
different from Jones. He
preaches the bible straight from
the shoulder "in a plain simple
though eloquent manner and
ptits his illstrations so plain and
clear that' the. force 'of its
application can not be resisted.
On Sunday afternoon he preach
ed his temperance sermon,
which is the finest, mostpractical
and pathetic discourse we ever
heard on that subject. Mr.
Jones preached the morning and
night sermons Sunday and they
were both grand. Sunday night
over two hundred repentant sin
ners gave their hands.
Monday morning was a great
least of love and rejoicing. Both
Stuart and Jones made talks.
Mr. Jones text was "What wait
I for? My trust is in God" At
the close of his remark hun
dreds went forward and gave
their hands, among them dis
" tillers and liquor dealers. Such
a scene is scarcely ever wit
nessed' any timeor in any
country. The spirit of heaven
seemed hovering , pleadingly
over all and eyas unufted to tears
were wet and hardened hearts
were melted into the tenderness
of the hearts of babies. Hands
that had not touched for years
were clasped in friendship and
love asrain. and tongues that had
l spoken evil were turned to
words of forgiving and praises
to God. It was glorious to be
there.
The influences of such occa
sions can never die. They work
like the leaven.
