Hunter’s vision of » ghost, clad in a bath robe, combing her auburn hair be fore a, mirror. The writer isMr. J. G Jordan, tftwell known resident of the Prospect neighborhood: ' Prospect, Oct. 18, 1903. * Editors Times-Enterprise: Having seen in yodr paper the acjonnt of Ur. J. 8 t Hunter’s vision and your offer for the best interpretation of the same, I sought in prayer for the same and beg leave to produce to Mr- Hunter and the ■’readers of your paper thesame. ■ » As for thee, O Hunter! your thoughts upon your bed were of the Church of God, and behold you *aw a woman, large and tali, with a beautiful head of fiery auburn hair which she was oomb- ing; the image of one that had been de ceived by her lover, for which cause she perished away and died in her grief— .but behold she lived. - This woman is the type of ti)p Churoh of ti)0'Living God that is to be the bride of the Lamb. She was 'sent into the world to he educated and prepared for the bridegroom, but she fell in love with worldly men because of their beauty and wisdom. They jilted and broke her heart, and today she is not a visible body to the natural eye, but is only seen by the spiritual eye. She was oombing hair, which is a type of the members of that church; the comb the truth of the Word, and the combing xeprjsentt the working of the Holy •Ghorffc, that keeps them straight and (keeps out all dead hairs straightens the live oues. And the bathing suit repre sents the commandments of God, which keeps her from the stain of the world, the sea. / . And thou,/ O Hunter! art one of her hairs but art a little tangled with the sectarianism and the woridiness of the aame, and God gave you tbfcvision that you might know that the Church of God is not a denomination or a sectarian body, but is an invisible church that is in the midst of them all and that dwellaf in the hearts of all true believers, ana is seen only by those who are willing to Suffer with Christ and be baptized with his baptism and who will walk in the light of the Holy Ghost. And I pray God that you and all others, who by Chance may read your vision, will give heed to the sermon preached therein, for the night is far spent, and the bride groom is coming soon, as you saw the bride before the dresser preparing to meet him when he conies. May the grace of God be with you, and may his spirit lead you into all truth. Amen! J. G. Jordan. M. E. Mallette, Mr.. E. F. Cooke, M». Julia Robiton, Mr*. T. J. McCsrtnej. M. K.
