Whittington Moor- Salvation Army

Thank God, the work is still rolling along here. Since the arrival of Captain Williamson and Lieutenant “Happy Martha“, we have had some glorious soul saving times. Numbers of deep dyed sinners have been led to the foot of the Cross, got rid of the burden of sin and are now rejoicing in the God of their Salvation. Hallelujah! Our Saturday night Free and Easy was a glorious time.

On Sunday morning we had a splendid meeting, powerful testimonies. At night open-air, as many as four or five guns waiting to fire into the enemy's ranks at one time; then the order was given to fall in four deep and half marched off to the barracks and half marched to the Queen's Room, which we have been obliged to engage for the last three Sunday nights since our new officers came and powerful meeting at both places; finished with four in the Fountain making over 40 who professed to find peace in the 18 days that our new officers have been here. Praise the Lord!

(Capt. Williams).-Private J. Cadman writes:—"At the Saturday Free-and-Easy many testified to being made free indeed through the blood of the Lamb. Sunday, grand day, notwithstanding snow and rain fell unceasingly, the Barracks afternoon and night were full. Sister Mason, of Sheffield, was with us in the afternoon. One soul returned to his Father's fold. Night was the crowning time; a very powerful meeting and at the close fourteen professed to find the pearl of Great Price. To God be all the praise. Amen."

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

I do not know where the meetings were held
