LETTER FROM

Editor Courier:
Will you please give me space in <
your good paper to let my Person
County friends know about the week's
revival I have just closed at my
home community school house. When
I was a boy we had one of the strongest
Sunday Schools in the County.
It whs an evergreen, and was run by
all denominations, \v~r.: by the name
of Union Sunday S'.ooL There was
never a contest put on that out J
School failed t-> rave off the pr.se
We had one of the best singing elms
es in the state, with some of the
most loyal teachers this side of the
Kingdom. They were there rain or
shine.

think of those earnest teachers who

to be there, and I have seen the-1
house packed like sardines. Out of i
thia good number there were 18 who 1

holding services in isolated commun- ,

on my heart that God would, use me j
in bringing the lost sheep into 'he ,
fold. He heard and answered my,'
prayers. There were 7 souls who pro- (
fessed faith in Jesus Christ, and the ,
Christians renewed their covenant
with a determination that they would ,
run the Sunday School in the good
old fashioned way. I have more calls
than I can fill to come and hold revivals.
I give God the glory for the
success of my work. I held out a
crucified Saviour who was able to
save sinners from their sins. If you

ervice was attended by an unusually
arge crowd of neighbors, friend*,
ind relatives who came to see the
emaigs laid in the last resting place
n the family cemetery.
In that service the bereaved ones
vere reminded of three facts with
vhich to comfort themselves. The
irat of these is the fact that she had
ived a life worthy of praise and renembranca.
The second is cxpresa d
in' the woTds of the Master when
Te said, "I go to prepare a place for
rou. And if I go and prepare a place
for you I will come again and re.
eive you unto myself that where I
im there ye may be also." The third
>f these facts is found expressed in
:he words of Jacob to Joseph, "Benold
I die: but God shall be with
pou."
The deceased left several children
sod grandchildren. The children are
ss follows: Mrs. O. D. Bailey, of
Woodsdalc; Mrs. Mary E. Chapell,
