Hello everyone. Praise the Lord!
The women and children began to wear cleaner clothes, came with their bonnets on, and left their dirty aprons at home. The men shaved and combed and came with their families. They said the meeting was doing good, and that their wives and children were getting more tidy and keeping their homes cleaner.

Many of the best citizens came to the meetings and were astonished at the great victory we had gained over the rough element, and the good order was maintained. The tent held 8,000. There were meetings every day and night for five months. There were thousands outside the tent, but they could see and hear. We had six small tents, besides the large one, and it looked like a little town. I slept, and so did my helpers, like little babes in our tents. Oh, praise the Lord for His care and protection!
Many were carried in, and got up and walked out. The blind shouted for joy; the lame threw away their crutches, leaped and rejoiced, and said, “Oh, I am healed!” The deaf and dumb clapped their hands, while tears of joy ran down their faces. Children that had never walked ran about praising the Lord. Some, both young and old people, who were perfectly helpless, received a shock from heaven’s battery that sent life through their limbs; they clapped their hands and jumped and cried for joy.

Many were baptized with the Holy Spirit and received many gifts; all the gifts were manifested by the Holy Spirit. Many received the gifts of healing; the casting out of devils; some of miracles; of visions; of the gift of the Holy Spirit by the laying on of the hands; some received the gift of divers tongues and spoke very intelligently in other languages, as the Spirit gave them utterance. He gave them to know what they were speaking.
