(Capt William Gray). We have opened here against sin and wickedness at Waddington, and have had some blessed times. We get the Temple filled with the right sort - some who never went to hear the word of God. On Monday night, our first convert here sang,
"There is a fountain filled with blood."
And five more came to Jesus. At a quarter to seven, off we go for a march. "Happy Annie" goes in front with the lantern, as we have no gas here. One hundred children helped us to sing,
"Oh! it is glory!"
We finish up every night with souls coming to Jesus.
Friday's Holiness Meeting was the best of all; real heart-searching time; six souls out for pardon. Sunday, better still. Six souls in the afternoon, and two more at night, making twenty-six for our first week here.
From, "The War Cry," page 3, 8th December 1881.
(Capt Gray) —The Lord is making bare His holy arm here. We are believing God is going to save more yet-even some of those who come to our open-air meetings and are afraid to come inside. This last week, six souls have come out for Salvation. The fire has began to spread. Hallelujah!
From, "The War Cry," page 3, 19th January 1882.
In this country village, some of the worst of characters have been saved. The little fort has been full every night and on Sundays it is not half big enough. The Lord is working mightily and not only here, but in the villages all around.
From, "The War Cry," page 2, 23rd March 1882.
(Capt. William Grey) -Private Wm Smith writes: - "Waddington is going on to victory. The Lord is reviving His work gloriously. Sinners are being saved, and washed in the fountain of Christ's blood. The Soldiers at Waddington are earnest workers for their Lord and Master. Oh, may God prosper them, and bring them on to victory. Amen."
From, "The War Cry," page 3, 13th April 1882.
I do not know where the meetings were held.
