Lye - Salvation Army

(Capt Machin).—Although the devil has a stronghold here, thank God. we were enabled to make a breach and take five poor slaves of sin to our King, and He broke their chains and set them at glorious liberty. Go on, Soldiers, God is with you!

From, "The War Cry," page 2, 2nd February 1882.

(Capt. T.S. Machin),- We are glad to report that we are still going ahead, although the devil has been trying to upset our work by his slander and persecution; Yet, thank God, He has only made us more united and driven us closer to the Master, Sunday was a blessed day to our souls: the Holy Ghost came upon us aud filled us to overflowing. God was indeed in our midst. Sinners trembled under the power and six stepped into the glorious liberty of God. Our Holiness Meetings are blessed times. Our Soldiers love the meetings. They are like wells of Water springing up, where we drink and drink of its pure stream, and yet we still are dry.

From, "The War Cry," page 3, 23rd February 1882.

I do not know where the meetings were held.
