Boys And Preacher Have Trouble.
From what we can learn from
the region of Murrayville, tlasre
seems to have been trouble down
that way Sunday. Possibly read¬
ing too much war news inspired
the minds of some to be brave. The
preacher had finished preaching
and Seperated, one going to d ne
with a brother and the other to d ue
with another brother. After Ahe
of the preachers lvad fkushed* a
good dinner he went over to visit
a neighbor of his host with whim
brother preacher had gone home
until with. He had fellows not been there in lri|ig and
some came
: raised a row. Before long one of
j the preachers got of into those the fellows game,
j and the way two
; made that preacher “go away”
j would doubtless have been good
j for a moving picture show. Now.
there is little doubt but that file
preacher did the thing he ought
] to have done, because if those
fellows had got hold of him, he
would not have been able to run.
On his way home the preacher was
asked if he was going to disc*n
| finite preaching againgst whiskey,
: IIe replied, “1 mean to fight the
j hellijsb stuff to the finish, if the
j law will back and protect me in
it.”
