But the more I thought of the way those young people were moved in the meeting and with what glad hearts they had shouted their praises...

As we drove home I listened attentively to the conversation between my uncle and his wife. They were greatly impressed with the meeting, and they spoke first of this one and that one who had come through and what a change it would make in the community, as many of them were bad boys. As we were...

I yielded to his entreaty and he led me forward to the altar. The minister took me by the hand and spoke tenderly to me as I knelt at the altar. I had gone more out of sympathy than conviction, and I did not know what to do after I bowed there. The others were praying aloud and now and then one...
