(Capt. Tom Hopkins).—We were told that when the winter came, The Army would go down; but thank God it is not so, for we are going up. The past week has been a good one. At the Friday night's Holiness Meeting, several surrendered their all to Jesus; and, on Sunday night, eight deserted the ranks of sin and Satan, making ten for the week.

(Capt. Tom Hopkins) Stil going up. Good meetings every night. Last Tuesday at our Assembly, seventy spoke in thirty minutes. Sunday, one woman walked six miles, to tell us she had been converted through reading The War Cry. She told us that some said she was gone wrong in her head but, she thanked God, she was right in her heart. At night, Hall crowded, lots had to go away. We finished up with four souls. Making eight for the week.
From, "The War Cry," page 3, 16th February 1882.
I do not know where the meetings were held.
