British Subjects criticize American Race Journals Madam Azalia Hackley to Give Musical Treat Volume 28 A BRITISH NEGRO SUBJECT TALKING OUT—A SAMPLE OF JUSTICE—ENGLAND FELT TOO SELF SUFFICIENT. Editor the Freeman: Being so much disgusted with the lethargy of your American Negro journalists' methods of silence, while the other opposing journalists of the world are crying down your race, that I have decided to say but very little more abotu you indolent lot. However, I beg permission to write about Negro hatred in this country—England. Yes, England, Ireland and Scotland. They are all polished abhorers of all darker races of men. There are very few Negroes who come to these countries and get out again without being sent to prison or penal servitude for very minor crimes. Joseph Small, a West Indian Negro, was indicted here under the contravention of the criminal amendment act. His crime was for interfering with a little ill reputed Scotch girl, age 14. She lived with him and never complained until after she was away from this Negro, who was apprehended, put in jail and kept for three months before the trial came off. At the trial it was proven and shown clear and conclusively that the girl was bad and that her parents were bad. Their lives were sordid, so was the girl's, but the charges against Small were found proven and the judges gave Small two years' imprisonment, and the judge said, he was sorry he was not charged under the statutory clause, for if he had been he would have no hesitation in sending him to penal servitude for ten years. I am not upholding this West Indian Negro in his crime, for he had been well warned about these poor white people's hatred to the race in this country, but he hated his own color. Four weeks later in the same court two white men were charged and tried under the same clause as was Joseph Small. One was on a girl of 10 years. This man got only 12 months and the other got five months. What is the difference between American and British justice to the Negro? I would prefer the American rope. Another case, in London, England, this time, during the carter's strike, another Colored man was coming home from his work at the docks. He was ordered back by the police. He stated he was going home. The mteorpolitian police drew his baton, struck this man and nearly killed him. He was advised to go to the police station and report the brutal assault. This he did. When he explained his case, the officers come from behind the bar, took this Colored man, charged him as being a rioter, locked him up all night and the next morning found him guilty and sent him to prison for 60 days, without the option of a fine. He lost his job and had a wife and little child dependent upon him. I would prefer the American's rope and faggots any time to Britain's white-fronted laws and black-hearted hatred to the dark- You know what the Americans are. They are out and out. It is not so here, believe me. This war is a stunner to Great Britain, for she has been so long accustomed to fighting the unarmed and defenseless races of men who would after a brief struggle, let them take all their possession for a few Bibles, cheap cloth of bright colors and whisky. But to face modern warfare is indeed a gigantic undertaking and a thing quite out of her line, but she is getting in line slowly. black man's spy and I am alone in this spy peril, but I am watching the trend of things, and I am doing so in Britain today. The dark races have been robbed and I have planted myself among the greatest number of the highway robbers and canting pirates. After all these dark races is today lying anxiously awaiting to come to the rescue of their greatest oppressor Britain. These black troops would make history for themselves and for their race and put the white troops to shame Of the night raids and sallies they make without fear; Their intrepid daring and the flash of their knife, When the German surprised turn and flee for their life, Like a snake they lie lurking coiled up in a ring, Like a lion they crouch, like a tiger they spring, Like a whirlwind they come sweeping over the plain, Leaving naught in their trail but the wounded and slain; Ha, ha, if the black devils on the iels, 25 Green St., Glasgow, Scotland. Mrs. Armento Parks, who died Wednesday at her late hour on Council street, will be buried Saturday at 2 o'clock from Tabernacle Baptist church. In the death of Mrs. Parks only has her large family, consisting of a grandmother, Mary Jane Miller, a father, John Lowery, three brothers, James, John and Hugh Lowery a sister, Mrs. Pearl Lowery W The commercial greed of the British merchants makes it very hard for the poor in this great conflict. They are very unpatriotic and by their actions they are bleeding their poor inhabitants to the heart and showing Germany how utterly dependent they are on Germany's industries. For instance: The very first days of the war the British merchants put sugar up to 6d per pound, meat, tea and flour went up to an alarming rate, native products, such as oats, potatoes, butter and eggs are at an enormous price here now. I was told by a commercial traveler that in Britain everything was much dearer than in Farnce, and that staple products in Belgium were no dearer than here. That is clear and conclusive proof of the British greed for money. Practically all their ports are open. All her merchant ships are free to go to and from Canada, United States, the Argentine, Japan, India and Australia and New Zealand, to carry and fetch provisions as usual. The mistress of the sea should be able to supply her poor sons and daughters with the absolute necessities of life at normal and not abnormal prices for months to come. That would then show her true protective ability to her own. But no, it's all for money. A few poor are benefited by this war. There are many who never had a suit of clothes on their backs nor a new pair of boots on their feet who have been clad since joining the soldiers, and they look very smart. Many who used to take drink have now turned to be teetotalers. That is good. Of course, Germany has been preparing for this war for 40 years or more, while Britain has been blind and self satisfied over her easy successes over the darker races, keeping them down under, while Germany was going ahead stealthily killing Britain's enterprises by dumping everything into the British merchants at a rate cheaper than it could be produced at home. Hence Germany made a veritable beehive of industry for its subjects, where there is no poor houses. But this country, this great country of ours, is nothing but a charity organization colony. There are more poor houses, lunatic asylums, drinking dens, prisons, preachers and churches according to the population than any other country in the world and more selfishness, hatred of class against class and drunkenness and foul language used by these charitably taught Britains than any other place in existence, unless it is hell itself. Yes, something is going to happen. I am not a German spy, but I am a Los Angeles, Cal., FEB. 20. 1915 Sewallock 1912 Madame E. Azalia Hackley will present a Folk Song Festival at Trinity Auditorium Tuesday night, March 9, with a grand trained chorus of 150 voices for the benefit of the Hackley Normal Vocal Institute, Chicago, Ill. A portion of the net proceeds will go to the Day Nursery and the Sojourner Truth Home. At the Festival only the compositions of colored composers will be rendered. The event will mark an epoch in the musical affairs of Los Angeles which is bound to reflect great credit upon the colored people of the city and State.

These black troops would make history for themselves and for their race and put the white troops to shame if they would allow them to do so, but no, they are in France and England now for three months and so brilliant were their talents and shrewd were their tactics when they were in action that they are held back so as not to let their shrewdness and real bravery and superiority over the other forces of the field be made known Madame E.

Mrs. Armento Parks, who died last Wednesday at her late home on Council street, will be buried Saturday at 2 o'clock from the Tabernacle Baptist church. In the death of Mrs. Parks not only has her large family, consisting of a grandmother, Mrs. Mary Jane Miller, a father, Mr. John Lowery, three brothers, James, John and Hugh Lowery, a sister, Mrs. Pearl Lowery Winters and sweet little nine-year-old Mary Parks, her only child, and a loving husband, Mr. Caro Parks, but likewise the community in which she has presided for a number of years. Mrs. Parks made her life felt all the way along and her Christian personality is stamped forever upon the memories of the young people she gathered about her every Sabbath while she instructed them in a neighborhood Sabbath school. She was born Jan. 5, 1890, in Missouri, came with her parents to Los Angeles in 1901, where she has lived since. She was married in 1905 by Rev. Cooper at Riverside. As a young woman she has lead an exemplary Christian life. In her last visit to her grandmother last Sunday with a smiling countenance, she whispered, "All is well." To her little nine-year-old daughter she was a light of love. Grieve not, sweet friends, your mother, wife, sister and daughter is not dead, but asleep. FREDERIC DOUGLAS Every people have their heroes And their hero worshipers, We claim a right to one our homage pay; Though with the dead he's numbered Yet is he living still, We'd celebrate a "Frederick Douglas Day." From the humblest of the humble Came this man of sterling worth, No school or college e'er enrolled his His name is written in the halls of fame. Though the slave chain made him captive He knew God had made him free, This underlying spirit forged its way Until he has gained his freedom; His life work then began The fruition of which we enjoy today. He knew life would be a struggle. But his hopes reached 'cross the years When justice would say men were free indeed; When all who loved their country And answered its command, Would find protection where the need. Douglas, ours is still a combat, Yet despite oppressions hand, We are moving on and up, though Hope's bright rays With the same one for our leader, Whom you let give command; For him and right, we mean to stand IF LINCOLN COULD RETURN EVA CARTNER BUCKNER. If Lincoln could return to-day, I wonder what he'd think and say About this great and glorious land O'er which he once had the command, With all the progress he would see, I know he would astonished be.

I'm sure he'd scarce know what to do; And like a wanderer on the strand A stranger in his own home-land— Until he'd look around and see This same old flag of liberty. I wander then if he'd recall The greatest deed he did for all, And that if he would sorry be That he had set the captives free? What, set those millions captives free? How oft it's said it was not he. Yes, but a mightier hand you see, Guided the pen, t'was so to be That all His legacy might share What you and I love best, free air; And, too, his knowing eye could see That to advance, all must be free. For nature says, and it is true, To push the one we pull the two. And all who love their country true, Love Lincoln's name, naught else to do; And oh, could he take one survey, I wonder what he'd think and say. MHITE WIVES OF BROWN MEN Sir John Rees, M. P., an authority on Indian affairs, commenting in an interview yesterday on the circular issued by the Australian government, at the Colonial Secretary's request, warning white women against marrying Afghans and Pathaus (Indian frentiersmen), pointed out that the pathans who are Mohammedans, treat their wives well according to native ideas, but that what they consider the very best treatment is utterly degrading to white women. "Mohammedans," he continued, are entitled to more wives than one, and white women who marry them will find that their husbands are not likely to persist in monogamy. As a matter of fact the white woman almost always finds herself shut up in the harem with a number of native wives, who hate her and endeavor to make her life miserable. Such marriages do much to degrade the status of the Europeans in India. The white woman becomes an outcast among people who despise her. "It is not generally known, too, that a wife becomes subject to the laws of her husband's country and sometimes she finds that divorce is fatally easy; or she may eventually be sold as a slave. Her children are half castes, looked down on by both white and black races, and are subject also to the laws of her husband's land." From the Scrap Book by J. D. REYNOLDS. SIR RICH High executive of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor Well, President Wilson's pal, Gen. Villa, has proclaimed himself dictator and now perhaps Mexico will gain recognition.

Lincoln the great Emancipator and Douglass, anti-Slavery agitator. To look at Prof. Moore, presiding, you would think that it was Thomas B. Reed over the 51st Congress. As the speakers of the occasion fail to put in their appearance Prof. Moore spoke on Douglass, while Harold Prince did likewise for Lincoln. It was given under the auspices of the Bish Smith Club at the A. M.E. Church of which Mr. Obied Prince is Captain, and Mr. Reginald Prince the Chairman deserved much credit for the fine program and its financial success. The soprano solo by Mrs. Corina B. Hicks was good, and the contralto solo by Miss Ethlyle Miller will long be remembered. Prizes were given to those selling the largest number of tickete. The first prize going to Miss Ruby Prince, a manicuring set; the second to Miss Ora Fouche; third to Miss Ruth T Prince, a box of stationery. For the boys Master Obie Prince got first a fine watch; second to Regernal Prince, a pocket knife. The Ballard Orchestra furnished splendid music. The potraits of Lincoln and Douglass were on the platform, while many large flags were around the platform in the decorations. "763,078, U. S. gain in church members in 1914," so says the Statistical Table issued by the Federal Council of the Churches of America and the grand total of members now is 38.708,149, about one-third of the people in the United States are members of some church. The Methodist's gain last year was 231,460. The Baptists, 122,123; Catholic, 136,850; Lutherans, 56,248; Presbyterian, 56,015; Orthodox churches, 36,500; Prussia, 29,315, and Protestont Episcopal 28,641. So you see the churches could kill the saloon if they would and the saloon would kill the church if they could Attorney Hugh E. MacBeth spoke at Pasadena Sunday morning at the Methodist Church Scott Chapel. His subject was "The Gift of the Methodist." It was the anniversary of Freedom's Aid Society. Capt. J. D. Fredericks is a supporter of the Clansman, but on Nov. 3rd last he said he was your friend, but Dr. Luck supported Governor Johnson and was opposed to the Clansman. Stand pat men of party. Mr. T. C. Walker is soon to address the Filipino Society of this city, as there are many of them in this city. Some of them are employed at the hotels. Many a man who knows his own mind is not overburdened with knowledge. The world's greatest misfit is illustrated by the big opinions of small men. A school for insane people has been established at Massilon, Ohio, said to be the first in this country. If a branch of it was established out here 1 believie it could get some students. The installation of the new pastor at Friendship Baptist church will be a grand affair from Thursday to Sunday evenings; don't miss it. Sunday evening many able ministers will attend. Rev J. M. Riddle will preach Sunday evening at 7:30. What has gone with the Wesley Chapel Literary society? We hope that the Literary has found out by this time that experience teaches things that schools do not. We do not believe the members in that society can lead it as well as Mr. L. V. Stewart, and Pasadena hopes to soon again see him at the head of it before it is entirely dead. Get wise and save your society. This will be a great year for visitors to the exposition at San Diego and the one at San Francisco. So you need a good leader, never swop horses in the middle of the stream. AT LOS ANGELES. The Georgia society will meet Monday night, March the 1st, at Wesley Chapel, corner of Eighth and San Julian. All Georgians are welcome as well as the members. The Taxpayers and Voters protective association meet Thursday night, corner Pasadena avenue and California street, at the Garfield school building. The Business Men's league will meet Tuesday evening. All members are requested to be present; business of importance at 8 o'clock. So come out and help us in time, as a stitch in time is worth two needles in a haystack. Let us get together, for many a man who knows his own mind is not always overburdened with knowledge.

A GREAT BOOK ON THE NEGRO QUESTION By Prof. Charles Alexander Every reader of this journal should have a copy of "Battles and Victories of Allen Allensworth," the great book just published by Sherman, French & Company of Boston, Mass., written by Prof Charles Alexander of Los Angeles, California. This wonderful book contains the narrative of the life of Colonel Allen Allensworth, who rose from the lowest levels of degradation in slavery to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel in the Regular Army of the United States, the highest rank yet attained by a colored man; and it also contains the history of the Negro race from the beginning of the slave trade in the United States up to the present time. This book is written in the most fascinating style, with bits of moral philosophy and sound wisdom, altogether admirable. It is intensely interesting to readers of every class. It is one of the really great books on the Negro question—a most valuable contribution to our historical literature. Orders sent to Prof. Charles Alexander, 502 Thorpe Building, Los Angeles, California, will be given prompt attention. The book contains over 400 pages and sells for $1.70 postage prepaid. Books of this kind usually sell for $3.00. Agents wanted. Ten thousand—or more—members and friends of our churches are asked to copy the following letter and mail it (Feb. 20, 1915) to the congressman of your district and two senators of your state.

American Negro essayists, musicians and artists of more than average ability. From being as a class fifty years ago dependent on the benevolence of the government, the people of this race in the United States have accumulated property valued at $570,000,000. They have not yet caught up with the whites, who have had some thousands of years' start of them, but, in all frankness, everything considered, are they not doing pretty well, and are they not entitled to quite as much credit as criticism?—From the Christian Science Monitor. IS THE MAYOR Mayor H. H. Rose, who has so plainly shown his antipathy for our people, should hang his head in shame, after making his grand stand play for their suffrage and procuring his election on his false pretense of friendship for the race, he has show himself an imgrate, by his non-recognition in every way that it has been possible to do so. Last year he humiliated a delegation of Colored ladies which waited on him in regards to discrimination in public places. This year he treats lightly our citizens' protest again the pernicious Clansman. What kind of a man is this? We know of Esau who sold his birthright for a mess of pottage, but of this modern municipal statesman he carries away the palm for ungratefulness. We asked of him the uplift. He has given us social clubs instead.. HON. HENRY J. ALLEN OF KANSAS. We have known the Hon. Henry J. Allen of Kansas for many years.

Peace! Prosperity! Union! We note by the daily press that a posse is scouring the mountains of San Bernardino for a murderer, and in the face of the recent Fincer fiasco in that county we rise to ask "What are they hunting him for." We are pleased to note that the police department is to be graced with a woman representative of the race, and we only hape that one entirely fitted for the position is selected. The entire colored ticket published last week in the Post will not only meet the approval of those who see the entire hopelessness of such a step, but will we believe have the endorsement of the entire Afro-American population. The forces which have the destiny of the great CALIFORNIA EAGLE in hand, cannot be charged with not practicing what they preach, viz. Union. We have played the trump card, the one which heads our columns. And we hold that there is a great charm in our motto of PEACE, PROSPERITY and UNION! with especial emphasis on the latter, because in union there is strength. The Way Business Looks The optomist says that things are brightening up while the pessimist is still crying hard times. However, it is the hope of all the people that things will brighten up in the business walks of life. In questioning some of the business men of our city concerning "hard times" invariably the answer is that there is no reason for such stringencies. The country is just as productive as it ever was. No let rich and poor alike come out of the grouch. LINCOLN DAY FITTINGLY CELEBRATED. The Lincoln Day celebration held under the auspices of the California Eagle last Friday evening at the New Hope Baptist church was a pronounced success. Among the speakers of the evening were Lawyer Kelley, Rev. C. H. Anderson, Mrs. Eva Carter Buckner and Mrs. Pond Pope and last Capt. G. W. Hawwins, who represented the children of slavery still among us, and who presented to the audience for their inspection a garment made by his parent before the Civil war, which attracted much attention. There are those among us who ```markdown ``` feel that our relation to American slavery ought to be forgotten, but while we respect their attitude in this matter, we do not wholly agree with them, for we believe that too much consideration cannot be given those of our foreparents who came up from slavery and are still with us contributing to race progress whatever they may. And it is out of the almost Divine respect that we entertain for them that we have planned, an annual honorary dedication celebration to the living and dead of our fore-parents, who passed through this experience. We are shy of words with which to express our appreciation for the courtesy shown us by the pastor and members of the New Hope Baptist church for the kindness shown us on this occasion in turning their church house, including lights and other conveniences on this occasion. We also thank the participants, and the friends, who contributed their presence, and Mrs. Eva Carter Buckner, who spent so much time and patience in pouring out her soul in verse to the sweet memory of Lincoln and Douglass. Progress of the American Negro At the close of the civil war the number of negroes in the United States, North and South, was estimated at 4,000,000. The great majority of these, perhaps more than two-thirds, had only just been released from involuntary servitude, or from the conditions imposed by involuntary servitude. The great majority of the adults liberated by the emancipation proclamation and thrown upon their own resources were almost wholly ignorant and, in an ordinary sense, incapable. For their protection and help the national government instituted a freedmen's bureau and attached it to the war department. It is an interesting fact that this bureau was established on March 3, 1865, or within a few weeks of fifty years ago. One of its principal purposes was to enable the freedmen "as speedily as practicable to become self-supporting citizens of the United States." Within five years from the organization of this service 2118 schools with 250,000 pupils, were in operation. Gradually the schools, banks, transportation aids, bounty collection agencies and other benefits associated with the bureau were dispensed with, the bureau itself was finally abolished, and the negroes were taken under the general system of government. In very many instances they were not then ready for competition with the whites, and much was said for some years afterward with regard to the alleged inability of the negro to do for himself. There are unkind criticisms along this line even to the present day. But it is worth while, in common fairness, to consider some of the statistics in the current Negro Year Book, published from the Tuskegee Institute. According to this authority, there are now 10,000,000 negroes in the United States. Of these more than 2,000,000 are farmers, 36,000 are miners, 20,000 are barbers, 21,000 are educated teachers, 15,000 are ministers, 2,500 are physicians, and other hundreds are lawyers and merchants. There are 2,000,000 negro women taking care of their own households, and there are 2,000,000 negro children in the public schools. In the executive service of the United States there are 1000 negro officers, in state and municipal office and employment probably 10,000. The negroes of the United States have 200 private schools and colleges. They have erected and are today maintaining 35,000 church buildings, valued at $56,000,000, and these churches have 4,000,000 communicants. There are four regiments of negroes in the United States army. The race is represented by 200 newspapers and periodicals. It has produced in the half century orators, poets, If in the market to buy or Sell, Houses, Apartments or Rooms to Rent consult our Calendar.

AT REST.—Mr. George James Banks, beloved father of Artie and Sandie Banks of this city, died at his home early Monday evening. Mr. Banks had been bothered with heart trouble for several weeks. Mr. Banks had been a resident of this city for several years. The funeral services were held at the undertaking parlors of Johnson, Connell & Saum. One of the largest crowds that ever attended a social dance was out to Kastle Hall last Friday to the ball given by the Country Club boys, consisting of Messrs. Wm. Henderson, M. Gray, I. Watts and H. Bundy. No pains or expense were spared by these boys. The music was furnished by the Country Club's white orchestra and met the approval of all. The dance continued until 1 a. m. From the time the orchestra started to play "You're the Most Wonderful Girl," until the last strains of "Home Sweet Home" did the merry dancers refuse to let their musical feet respond to the fascinating strains. Much credit is due the Country Club boys, and we are proud to have such men in our community. We hope in the near future they will duplicate their ball.

He visited the said place three times and is still thinking they will be bothered with him again very soon. Was 18 Tuesday the 16th? Had their pictures taken?

Zion Baptist Church ‘Bunday was a day of marked inspiration. At 11 o'clock, Rey, Geo. W. Woddby, the noted social. ist and bible historisn preached 4 stirring sermon from the 15th chapter of Daniel, 1st verse, his subject being “The Feast of Bel. Bolshaszar.” Through many beau- tiful fignres of allusion, he exem- plified Ihe practicn] worship of idole of this modern age, but showed how the worship of the true God is undermining ell idolatry. At night, the large capacity of the church auditorium set good pace to the worth of full space, for there were many from all parte of the city to hear Rev. Dr. J. T- Hill preach hie sermon on the “Clansman subject.” Text: 14th and a part of the I3th verses Ex- odus, ‘Stand Still—the Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.” After prefacing his argument uf bis text with a clear introduction, be gave capital to his climax by showing that righteous diplomacy is involved in the Ne- gro’s decission whether to openly fight such evils as the Clansman, or whether to stand atill. To give to the audience some points for de- cigion, he explained the phas.s of contention and the stands taken by the two acknowledged leaders of the Afro-American people, Booker T. Washington and W. E. B, Du Bois, Mr. Wasbington, he said, stands for that idea of the Negro winning out and solving his race problem by not so much fight- ing, but to weaken the efiegts of prejudice and the evil opposition of the opposite race, by learning how to beat the other “fellow” or the other race, in doing thinge, that i, to match opposition with efficien— cy; while Mr. Du Boi stands for the agitation of rights, and to de- mand the same through the’ chan- nel of “fight,” His summary was “fight when you are prepared to win.” “present not your griefs to the public,” “Success is won beat by presenting the sunny side.” “Fight ‘silent battles’ through the channel of efficiency.” The Valentine ; entertainment was quite a success, reflecting cred- it upon the Missionary society ladies and “The Get-Acquainted Literary club.” ©. A. Biccers, Church reporter. Tabernacle Baptist Church News The prayer meeting on Sunday morning is still going on. We had with us last Sunday morning Rev. Carmicheal who has recently come among us. Sunday school was conducted by the Assistant Superintendent, Bro. L. Davis, there was a good at, tendance and good reports. The pastor occupied the pulpit in the morning and preached to a very large congregation, taking for his text: “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.” The sermon dealt with Jesus as being the pat- tern for us to go by as He is the only way shown, What He did during His earthly sojourn is what we must donow, You need not try to do something Jesus never did. However, some people are urging that you talk in tongues or else you are not following Christ. He never uttered one word in the unknown tongue during His earth- ly life, When he died and spoke He was not tongues, and how fool- ish it is for Christians to demand that you speak in the tongues, I! Christ were to come among us hiding His identity and were He to say that I was baptized on the Jordan banks and God’s voice was heard endorsing me‘and I had not uttered myself in tongues the saint would say to Him: ‘Brother, you experience :is good, but we can’ recognize you, unless you speak it tongues, and whatever you do any of God’s children’ you ae done it unto Him.” He also, your teigue miay bathe badge o ‘are to look. for in discipleship is Hee lin oe eustling © od Sengee _ oe tem ‘cheep substitute for love, pati- ‘ence, gentigness, and sll the Chrie- Han vartaes these are the badges of discipleship and in sll our get- ting get wisdom : Among the sick Sister Kenny is still at the hospital very much im- proved.

We were also glad to re- ceive her. Rev, Dickerson preached in the evening from the text: “I shall be satisfied when I awake in His likeness.” He said we would not be satisfied unless we hud been awakened by the Gospel trumpet and then we should not be satisfied to talk this religion, or sing, nor preach this religion but by actu- ally living the life of the Lord Jesus Christ, ‘The Bible class is being largely attended each evening.

It is hidden to the wicked dead, the living desd or the lost.. So many people can’t see the joy in the gospel because they are in their own light.

Dones Candidate for City Council sat down and read it under the clothesline. Such heavenly sweetness entered my soul that I felt like jumping up and shouting, and I received so much good out of it that I had to tell my husband and one of my sons about it. The fourth letter I received seemed to have still more of the power of God behind it. It seemed like heaven had entered my soul, and I was more interested in the things of God than I was about eating and what the family were talking about. I was happiest when alone with the Lord, for I was drawing closer to God. I felt led to ask Brother Goss to come here and preach to this people. He prayed and asked the Lord also, and was led to come. The Lord witnessed to me that He would send him. After a time the Lord sent him and he laboured here for two months. After he came I was more earnest and desirous than ever to seek and receive this experience of the baptism of the Holy Ghost. I seemed to get closer and nearer to God every time I prayed. Sometimes the power of God was very close to em and on June 9th, in the morning, I said to Brother Goss, "I feel led to pray." He said, "Alright." So we knelt down to pray and after prayer, the power of Ged fell on both of us. I was so happy I could hardy do any age of the Church. They said that God was returning the baptism unto the Church as in former times, according to Acts 2:1-4. I read their letters but hardly knew what to think about it, as I heard so much against this present truth. Sometimes I thought it seemed like Bible and was almost believing; and again at other thing but praise the Lord. He had perfect control of spirit, soul and body, and I did receive the Holy Ghost and spoke in other tongues as the Spirit gave me utterance, according to Acts 2:1-4. Hallelujah! Praise the dear Lord for evermore! I am still praising the Lord and will praise Him throughout all eternity. I am so happy in the Lord every day and hour, and that same power of God and holy boldness which came upon me on that day, is still with me; and the same Spirit which witnessed to me at my conversion witnesses every day, of the abiding presence of the Holy Ghost. Truly, the Comforter has come. My greatest desire is to be just what the Lord wants me to be and I want to be useful in the service of God. I do not want to be idle but to be up and about my Father's business, for the Lord has been so good to me that I feel like helping others. May every soul who reads this ask God to lead them if they have not received the Holy Ghost. Do not stand back because somebody does not believe in it, but pray and read and search your Bible and find out for yourself, and God will show you. But, and if you do not believe and would rather ask man than God, he cannot show you. You must be honest with God and yourself, humble and teachable, and the Lord will do His part.
