Ernest Hanson, a compositor in the
Obsebveb office several years ago, for
a short time, is now one of the leading
Tongues of Fire preachers at the Gos
pel Mission in this city, and has begun
the publication of a monthly paper,
"The Apostolic Witness," to assist in
spreading his rather peculiar doctrine.
Here are a few extracts from the first
number of Swift's paper :
"These are perileous times."
"The begger can be clothed in
spotless robe of righteousnees."
"Take heed to yourselves least at
any time your hearts be overcharged
in surfieting."
"Brother Everett Wilson, from
Philomath, is with us and is hunger
ing for his baptism."
"Even the poor and ignorant can
win more souls than many of our
mordero educated D. D's."
"Brother Charles and Sister Beiyl
Hanson took the train to Albany the
morning of the 12th for a few days'
visit with the saints there."
"Sunday evening meeting of the 10
th was a powerful one, the Holy Spirit
worked marvelously through two
young men in intersessory prayer."
Many are preparing for a day of
Thanksgiving this month, it' only
comes once a year than they celabrate
in giving . big dinners and gorging
themselves in gluttonous style."
The foregoing thoughts in "tangled j
type" carry us back to the old days in
the Obsebver office, when Swift's
proofs caused our proof-reader to lose
what little religion he ever had.
