Most of the readers of The
Weekly have always heard of blue
Friday. We at least have, but
never took any notice of it until
last Friday. It seemed the loco
motives and every conveyance
used made a dismal sound. The
smoke settled worse than usual
to add to the darkness and giootn
that was hovering over our city.
The execution of Jack Kelloy took
place at 10:40 o’clock. He was
taken from the jail and carried to
the court house, a short distance,
where all was readiness in the
rear to end his life. He died in
the Catholic faith, clutching a cross
in his hands as the trap was sprung.
Several hundred were there and
many of them eagerly viewed the
execution from the upper story of
the court house. All was quiet
and orderly. His body was taken
charge of by one of the under
takers and was viewed by hun
dreds till 6:00 o’clock Saturday
morning, when the Catholics took
charge of his body, held a service
at Oak Hill cemetery, and lowered
his body in the new part of the
cemetery. Here’s hoping we will
never see another such a blue Fri
day. His last song on earth was,
“When I’m Gone You’ll Soon For
get,” Just as the day was darkest,
we received the sad news that
our oldest brother, Mr. G. E. Buck
alew, had been buried the day
previous. May the Lord help us
to bear our cross, and may all the
workings of the heavenly Father
be a blessing to us.
We are still in the midst of a
holiness revival. A party of holi
ness evangelist preachers, wives,
*md daughters have pitched a tent
not far from home. Services are
held each night, so that all work
ing people who wish may attend.
One. of the best sermons we have
heard at this meeting was preach-
Friday night. The descending of
the holy ghost on the day of penti
cost was the text. About one
thousand people were present, all
seemed to be in a listening mood.
Quite a number received the holy
ghost and spake in tongues. Thev
have several fine musicians, using
an organ, violin, and two guitars.
The good book tells us not to judge
and we are not going to judge any,
but it is no harm to converse on
this matter. We only wish every
person that has never witnessed
any thing of this kind could hear
and see for themselves. We are
completely at a loss to describe
this mystery, and we did not have
the faintest idea uniil we went
and saw. So we invite ail you
Henry county people to come and
see, don’t say, oh I wouldn’t go jf
I could, and think it is not worth
