New York (NY) Daily People, May 24, 1906, p. 1. WITH ROTTEN EGGS THEY DEFEND THE BIBLE Nashville, Indiana, May 23-The Rev. George Porter, who has been holding revival meetings in various country churches for some time, will hereafter give the little church in Lucas Ridge, south of the city, a wide berth. Porter's sermons and talks led to an impression in the neighborhood that he was far from orthodox. This impression became a conviction when, in his sermon in the Lucas Ridge Church he remarked, "The Bible has become a dead letter." As he made this statement, several persons in the congregation quietly left the building. Porter went on with his sermon but in a few minutes a lot of stale eggs were thrown through an open window and landed on the preacher. Another lot followed the first, and then Porter ran from the pulpit, darted through a window on the opposite side of the church and started down the road on a run. A large number of the congregation chased the minister for nearly a mile, but he finally got away from his pursuers in the darkness.
