Trealaw - Salvation Army

TREALAW (Captain Whitehead) —H. Cooper writes:- "Sunday was a grand day here. Although the weather was very wet, we had a grand time of it. There was a good muster at the seven am. Knee-drill the Soldiers came up well all day to the open-air. Night was the crowning time of all. When Captain Cook gave her farewell address to as many as could be packed in our Hall: many were outside. The power of the Holy Ghost was felt in our midst, and many were moved to tears. We wound up with five souls at the feet of Jesus, and many more went home convinced they were on the wrong side.

(Captain Hettie Whitehead).-The Lord is working upon the hearts of the people here and sinners are falling at the feet of Jesus. Monday night three big sinners jumped over the forms to seek Salvation. On Thursday night a man came weeping down to the penitent-form, crying the publican's prayer - "God be merciful to e a sinner." Amen! Sunday, Hall packed; hundreds outside. two more in the fountain.
