Rev W A Rolle Returns From Star City Revivals
Rev W A Rolle and his family returned Monday from Star City and Mr Zion where he conducted successful revivals. A write up from the Lincoln County Ledge notes heavy heat but growing crowds at the Presbyterian Church meetings begun last Sunday. Rolle preached clearly and powerfully attracting listeners, with early services held daily in town stores. No conversions yet but hearers are warned by scripture and Christians are stirred to seek salvation. So mote it be.
