SAYS UNBEARABLE.
Uuj. j T. Gibson Preaches,
at Gospel 'rent.
||R COULD NOT WAIT
»l -"" '
Conference. Speaks of Knock
kneed Ministers.
•
Atlanta, Jul/ 11 —Rev. J. 'J',
Gibson, the former p.istor of
Walker Street Methodist church
held his first meeting at the.
gospel tent, corner Spring and
Luckie streets, yesterday after
noon. In spite of the threatening
condition of the weather, the
tent was well filled and the audi
ence gave the divine the closest
attention throughout his re
marks.
Rev. J- T. Gibson began by
stating that after a silence of
four months, which had become
absolutely unbearable to him, he
li d determined not to await the
action of the conference, which
meets in November, but to go
mi with his choseirwork in the
way open to him and to obey the
dictates of his conscience and the
imperative call of God, regardless
of ail complaint.
Before beginning he read a
statement prepared for the occa
sion, in which he stated he had
expressed his position and the
purposes animating him to re
sume the work of God once more
He read the statement which is
given elsewhere, with some dis
play of feeling.
Mr. Gibson read the twelfth
Psalm and confined his remarks
mainly through his discourse to
die pussaee of scripture selected
for the occasion. It was plain. |
however, that the reverend gen
tleman made several cojnpari-l
eons more or less 11 ittering of
biblical ch iracters with some of
those who Drought about his
suspension from the church.
He reviewed the early life o
David and went over fully tha‘ ■
p-riod in Iris you. b when he was)
••idled upon to slay the Philietin o I
gcat. He said :
‘David was laughed at by
K ng Saul when 1 t> offered to slay
the gian l who daily paraded in
tioiiiof bis camp and challenged
any one to come out and meet him
in sit gle combat.
“David was the only brave man
in the army of Israel and he hung
his head in shame at the coward
ice of the soldiers m er Saul, ai d
he was determined that some one
should stand ’or Israel ai d not
* et all be I randed weaklings
hence he came himself to the king
and announced his intenti m of
going out that day to fight the
giant.
"Saul laughed and ridi tiled
the idea of David, a simple shep
heid lad, doing battle with so r -
nown<d a warrior as Goliath, but
he was also pleas'd with his show
otcourage and off.red to lend
David his armor for the occiston
hut the bov refused, saying h<
W nild go in the gardof a shepherd
®ud armed only with his sling and
hi® faith in God.
u hen the giant hail falLn be
fore the sling of David and the lai'
had severed ihe bead fro n the bodx
then the hosts of Isreal, like a!
c °wards the world over, s t up a
mighty shout and pursued he 11 j e
>og enemy after David had dispers
ed them.
‘They doubtless said to each
otln-r that they had accomplish <1
H great victory, and boast,, d loud
ly of their bravery.

ASKS '"HE HILL CITY TO
Do Her Share Towards Geor

Headquarters: Room 112 Kim

Atlansa, Ga., July 6, ’vß.
To the Mayor and Citizens of
Rome, Ga. Sirs : —The Reunion
of Confederate Veterans will be
held in this city July 20—23
next. They will be the guests of
our state. It is desired to give
them royal welcome. To do this,
we want your cordial and gener
ous assistance.
The Reunion of 1896 was
held in Richmond, Va , and the
great people of the “Old Domin
ion” united in according the [
Veterans loving welcome.
No less grand was the sponta
neous entertainment given them
bp the loyal-hearted Tennessee
ans in Nashville in 1897.
Georgia must not, and with
your aid shall not be excelled in
this regard, by either of these
great states.
The Cons derate Veterans As
sociation of Nashville called on
the people of Tennessee for sup
plies with which *o feed the
many worthy Veterans who
could not afford hotel expense . 1
That call was responded to with I
lavish profusion.
In like manner do we call on
the people of Geergia, and all
who cherish the memories of the
“Lost Ctius°,” and who honor
t ie surviv' rs ot that cause, o
show their appreciation by liber
al contributions of provisions
and supplies, or money. Money
is more desirable, as provisions
can be procured hire, and save
exp-ess and freight. Every dol
lar will be applied solely fbr the
use o f the commissaries.
The General Commanding the
Georgia Division U. C. V. has
appointed Assistant Commissa
ry Generals in every county in
Georgia, who will secure and
forward such supplies as can be
obtained.
I now appeal to our city sisters
to aid us i.i money contributions
to assist in providing for all
old needy Veterans.
Respectfully.
