Kemnay (1871)



The work spread to KEMNAY, where hundreds of granite workers in the quarries-mostly very ungodly men - were reached; and, amid the usual opposition - which in this case took the form of taking the tiles from the roof of the meeting place and dropping stones through the aperture on the heads of the preachers - many were saved. Frequently, bands of young believers walked up from Inverurie, and sometimes returned in the early hours of the morning, singing the songs of Zion. In the villages of Oldmeldrum, Oyne, Insch, and` Rhynie, continuous work was carried on for months, and many saved - Mr Ross usually coming along to see and share the work, and by his ministry strengthen what the Lord had wrought.
