I did not get a.1 sihglFcTmvert, such a failure I've never had the like in my life. before, notwithstanding I pi'uach ' ed for four ngihts. There were/ but four Qr; live shiners in all; at night's service while I was y ".in Batesburg. " ; I preached what I regraded as wonderful sermons, but it-was like water poured on a duck's i .back. ~ ' ~ " ' - . Since then I have been look-, ing for my failure. Was it in a. the manner of my delivery? No. ? i I nvorl same manner everywhere 4 go. Was it because I. was not fully, consecrated toj _____ IGoHT: jsq^Jj^QBP my heart and life right every day. Was. it because I did not have the . ^ a. htj- i niiHiiir.Limi) in i 111-; {itiupie Ul iVll. i Zion-V No. They did all?hr: their power to make the meeting a success. The only thing I.can' say, I did not get any results in B&tesburg. Strange to say only last year, I conducted a revi-, r val at that Same church and sin-, ners could not stand the power of the_gps]Del.
