(Capt, Thirza Peck).-Glorious time on Sunday. As the "Praying Sailor," from Belper, Captain Peck spoke of Gods love, and our hearts melted to see sinners returning home. One dear Iad cried bitterly for mercy, and finding a full Salvation, he ran and threw his arms around his father's neck, weeping for joy. His mother, being in the Hall, was broken down at the sight, and the young recruit went to urge his mother to escape to yonder mountain. After a glorious meeting, we went home strengthened like giants refreshed with new wine. Halielujah! Whole families being saved. Five were made heirs of Heaven. Glory!
From, "The War Cry," page 3, 19th January 1882.
