Quite warm. Sister Hattie Arnold preached for us this 11 A.M. Lum & Tom
Doyle conducted service at 8 P.M. Bro. Smith Borden & class sing (sic) for
us at the evening service. Large crowd, morning and evening.

My comments:
Now, here was a congregation and church way ahead of the times! It was rare
indeed for a woman to fill the pulpit in those days, and even today many
congregations do not support it. I don't have any information on Smith
Borden.
