Davis took leave for the Gate City <fh Sunday. evening, January ,'M. He arrived in the city and tnadt himself comfortable in the palatial home of Mr. and Mrs. McKiever. ">07 Gilliard Street. The scene of spiritual conflict was in the Trinity ' Baptist Church of which the Rev. Mr. Jones "Th^T first night there were but few persons out to greet ami heiir Dr. Davis. But after he ha: made hi.?usual spiritual"X'T5TTtacT7 Dieii hTmiaffity began to realize that some' man of unusual ability was in town." The customary grape-ven radio .began t< broadcast and after the second nit* hundreds-were turned away from the church unable 'to get 1'hside. On every side could be heard the exclama -tiona "surely the Lord1 is with thai --man." " ' V J Truly the city of Florence and helped by the messages brought by the man - of God. As usual though and as in other cities, the critics were ever present and some went a step further to falsely accuse the evangelist of secu ri rig"money untiei false pretenses. A little investigation on the part of the authorities soon proved these rumors and accusations to be absolutely* false and without foundation. Florence has its peculiarities and ?it?~ share?of?superstitions: But m spite of the petty jealousies of those s who would hinder the work of hu^=??ff=uplift,--tlit' Spirit li iiniinhod'flmT "" "ttrc messenger was gladly received. * His office work was fully appreciated ? by all who crowded to consult him 1 and he was kept very busy with com 1 sultations from both races. Main f communications are hi-might ,t.> Kin. =_ daily through the muil attesting tin ' wonderful effects of his counsel and from others, asking for spiritual aid ? in the affair's of life. Dr. Davis is * constantly advising an 1 helping nian'> legitimate success.

The cor ?' rnfonUelt^that Dr. l.iavis has been o1 infinitely greater service to hu lanky in South Carolina than all of hi ^ critics put together, from any- angli whatsoever viewed.
