The Gospel Messenger March 29, 1892 page 202 Vol. 30 No. 13 SOLDIERS AT THE LOVE-FEAST. Bro. P. R. Wrightsman, of Kansas, relates the following interesting incident: " We well remember in times of the war in Tennessee when the old Limestone church had a love-feast appointed on Saturday, that, the day before a regiment of Confederate soldiers came and camped in our church-lot. On Saturday morning, when we convened for Divine services, to our astonishment and disgust, there were a thousand armed soldiers. In this event the church was in a dilemma, not knowing what to do for the best, whether to dismiss our meetings or go on, but finally the church in her wisdom concluded, to go on with the meeting. The large house was packed to its utmost capacity and better order I never witnessed at a love-feast and we were led to believe that impressions were made then and there that have since ripened into Christianity. After the meeting was closed, many of the soldiers said to " When the war is over, come over into Georgia, Alabama and Carolina and preach for us. We never he ard such preaching." We are happy to learn that, since then, our Brethren have established a number of churches far south of where they used to preach before the war. Yet those Southern requests have not near all been answered." Doubtless there are other members who can recall interesting incidents of the kind that would prove profitable reading, if published. We are glad for Bro. Wrightsman's narrative, and we will thank him, or any one else, for accounts of similar incidents. Such experiences ought to be placed on record for the benefit of future generations.
