(Capt. David Baugh).— this Station has been opened eight days. God is with us and saving some ol the worst sinners.
The "Converted Drunkard" standing up said, "Friends, you know me. I have been the worst character in Hednesford, but Jesus has changed my heart. If I had not been saved the publicans would have had six shillings, but my wife and family have had instead." Another said, "I am glad I am saved. One night last week there was a beneft for one of the actresses. After the play was over she came out crying because the people had gone to hear The Salvation Army. Our doors are thrown open, and they come in if they have not a penny. Salvation is without money or price. Hallelujah!" The drunkard shall be brought to Jesus. Eighty souls for this week.

(Capt. David Baugh) -God Is greatly working here, and many men and women, who for years have not entered a place of worship and who, on the Sabbath night, were to be found cursing, swearing and drinking, have wept their way to the feet of Jesus during the short time the Army has been here. On Sunday, a flood of Salvations came down and about seventy souls were born for the Kingdom, making 120 for the week... Glory to God this is the way we are going up. Oh Lord, keep us rising. Amen.

I do not know where the meetings were held.
