It is being held at one of *f the largest buildings in the city and all denominations "are coopt em Ling in tills ?ivat movom.brtt. ~ j*? To my mind this is a stroke in the _ right diiecTToh. to bring"" victory ;i over those nations that are determined to destroy the principles ol Christianity and to make might right. I wonder if the Christians of my race #have given, this a thought, its Bathetic to saerincc the best prouuct of our young men and seemly no hope in sight for remnant that remains. It appears to me that all Negro church es should petition God in interest of this- sad situation. I believe " not only- tli? white churches of Charleston should issue a call tc .prayer but those throughout th( world of all races and o? every faith,?Say?u.hnt ynn will hut 1 _ am in perfect accord with the campaign that's being launcheel in my city not withstanding it is among white people.
