FLYING VISITS
were made on Monday and Tuesday at Duns, Kelso, Coldstream and Jedburgh, with a single meeting in each town. At three of these places the meetings were conveyed in the parish churches as being the most commodious. It was cattle market day in Duns, otherwise the shops would’ve been closed for the time of service. Many drove in from the country, in every case drawn by the fame of the evangelists and also, we trust, by a desire to share in the blessing. At Kelso there was an overflow in the United Presbyterian Church, where Lord Polwarth and Mr Richard Hill exhorted, while Mr Sankey did his best to mitigate the disappointment of those who failed to hear the preaching evangelist. At the Jedburgh meeting on Tuesday evening there were some very encouraging cases of decision.
