Southampton - Salvation Army

(Capt. Crouch).—Since The Army has been in this town, we have seen some of the worst characters getting saved, who are now working for God. The past week has been one of the best since we have been in Southampton. On Thursday evening, while we were singing-

"Come to Jesus!'*

the power of God fell upon the peopie, and big men and women were falling down all around and crying aloud for mercy, and are now rejoicing in the God of their Salvation. We are believing for still greater things to be done here.

From, "The War Cry," page 3, 9th February 1882.

(Capt. Crouch),—Praise God! we are still rolling the old chariot along here, and daily there are more and more evidences of the working of God's Spirit among the people. Scarcely a night passes without someone coming out for Salvation. We have had as many as twenty, in one evening, at the form pleading for mercy, who are now living and standing witnesses of the glorious work going on in this sin-blighted town. We have always crowded meetings; hundreds not being able to obtain admission. The interest is increasing, and many a wave of blessing passes, but to leave the gladdening fact, that many more have left the way of sin they used to travel in. Hallelujah! The opposition is less now than it was, nd the police are on our side. Some publicans think of closing their houses as their best customers are leaving them. Hallelujah!

From, "The War Cry", page 3, 2nd March 1882.

I do not know where the meetings were held.
