(Captain Beynon).—Hard work is the lot of the Soldiers here. But they can sing-
"In the cross! In the cross!
Be my glory ever,"
They love it so, that they welcome all that comes, and thank God for it. On Saturday night, they had another real Free-and-Easy. If they are prevented making the people hear one way, they resort to another. At the evening Service, on Sunday, the Captain gave out that majestic hymn—
"Rock of Ages, cleft for me,"
And three came out at once for pardon. After one or two Soldiers had spoken, five more followed the example set them, and they, too, found Jesus to be precious.
From, "The War Cry," page 3, 24th November 1881.
(Capt. Beynon).— We are still going ahead at this Station. The fight has been very hard of late, with persecution on every hand. On Saturday we met for an "All Night with Jesus", and the glory did indeed shine into many souls that night, and about fifty came out for the blessing of a clean heart. The meetings all day on Sunday were glorious, and in the evening six fell into the fountain and got saved. On Monday about two hundred sat down to tea in the Barracks. Afterwards a meeting was held in the Factory Yard, when the devil began to rage in the shape of rotten eggs and stones being thrown at the Soldiers. In the meeting in the Factory, a great number testified of what God had done for them through The Army, and two more fell at the feet of Jesus.

(Capt. Beynon) —The past week has been the most powerful one here since this Station has been opened. On Sunday, good meetings, The Soldiers, Captain, and Lieutenant being filled with the Holy Spirit, fired red-hot Gospel shots, which told on the sinners hearts, and in the evening there was a grand smash, and several souls ventured their all on Jesus. Hallelujah!
From, "The War Cry," page 3, 2nd February 1882.
(Capt. Benyon). -"We have good meetings during the past week, Friday night was a heart-searching time, The Lord moved in a mysterious manner. We felt Him very precious to our souls. Five or six came out for more of Jesus and purity. Sunday was a grand time. Holiness Meeting at 10.30. At two o'clock we met for our Free and Easy. Good time; Soldiers full of life, joy, and happiness. One soul at the feet of Jesus. At night, Hall full; good order. Deep conviction laid hold of the people. At the close, two souls at the Mercy-seat."
From, "The War Cry," page 3, 2nd March 1882.
I do not know where the meetings were held.
