CASSVILLE.
Miss Haskins, from Tennessee, has
been preaching here for the oast three or
four nights. Some few were prejudiced
against women preaching but most of
them are not now. Miss Haskins is a
woman of unusually bright intellect and
speaks in plain language that can be
understood by every one. Her gestures,
voice, and general demeanor while speak
ing indicate the goodness, purity, and
deep piety of the woman. Very few
that have heard her deny that she is by
far the superior of most all the men
preachers. The order in which her ser
mons are arranged and the plain and
simple language she uses all go to prove
that she is a preacher of extraordinary
ability and an unusual gift of the spirit.

without an exception. It was my happy
lot to meet your excellent correspond
