Local editor defends a minister against accusations in Palmyra

A reader argues against claims that a pastor opposed the 8. S. Institutes and notes the picnic setting and lack of program. He defends Rev. Mr. Sickles and Bro. Perry, saying ministers were not blameworthy and that only a few attendees joined the afternoon session amid poor planning. The letter ends with a call to publish the facts and a generic ad about railroad advertising.
