Crediton - Salvation Army

Lieut C. Hartnoll writes, "The past week has been one of great blessing in this sin-blighted town of Crediton. Good meetings, conviction all over the place. Tears were streaming down the faces of men and women, as they listened to the story of the Cross; but, best of all, souls have come out for Salvation. Praise the Lord Many have left the devil's ranks, and are determined to begin the new year with Jesus as their Saviour. A man who had been, to use his own words, as miserable as he could live, on Sunday night, yielded to the strivings of the Spirit. He left the meeting just before the close, but the Lord so laid hold of him that he was obliged to come back and fall down at the mercy-seat.

(Capt Saville). —Lieut. C Hartnoll writes -"We are having some blessed times at this Station. Our meetings are getting better. We can truly say we are rising, and the devil knows it. Some, who were among his best servants are today in the ranks of the Salvation Army. Among others who got saved last week was a young man who has been a great dancer; but, praise the Lord, now he is determined that when he dances it shall be for the Lord instead of the devil. Sunday was a grand time. The power of the Lord was felt, and we closed the day with thirteen in the fountain. Hallelujah!

(Capt. S.E. Saville) —Lieutenant C Hartnoll writes:-"We are still rolling on at this Station. We have had some hard fighting lately, but are believing we shall gain the victory over sin and the devil, If we only prove faithful. Our Soldiers love the meetings better than ever, and are going in for more of God. Sunday was a glorious day to our souls. Hall parked as usual, many wounded, but eternity alone will reveal the good accomplished."

I do not know where the meetings were held.
