Baptism debate and convention notes at Baptist gathering
A spirited Baptist convention session in Dec. 1 addressed John 8:5 and baptism rites with Rev. R. A. Sublett and others debating religious interpretation. Poteat and Wilkins criticized modern jokes about baptism as inappropriate, while papers and sermons, including remarks by Brunson and Curtis, highlighted sanctity and civilizational foundations. Local notices advertise land trespass warnings, shop ads, and Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy endorsements.
