Dumfries - Salvation Army

(Capt Small) "Oh, wonderful pardon," might well be sung here. Since this very short time this Station had been opened 150 have felt the healing touch of the Saviour from all sin. The storm has been fierce, but He who ruleth the raging of the sea has lifted them over it. At this place the truth is spreading. On Sunday twenty entered the fold of which Jesus is the Good Shepherd.

From, 'The War Cry,' page 2, 26th January 1882.

(Capt. Small).—The few weeks this Station has been opened nearly 200 have professed finding Salvation. The Barracks are crowded every evening, and hundreds turned away. What a blessing, and what a loss to the devil's tabernacles! Husbands plead with their wives and wives with their husbands ending sometimes in both coming to the Mercy-seat together. Oh, Hallelujah! for such a work as this.

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

Our meetings are still crowded here and the power of God's grace to save has been made manifest. 140 all told mustered at Knee drill on Sunday morning. People at 10 o’clock were seen flocking in all directions, including our soldiers with caps, with a peak and red bands. We registered at the close of the day 17 slain of the Lord. Hallelujah.

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

I do not know where the meetings were held.
