Purday evening sermon and local tax proposal text
A fragmentary page notes a Purday evening preaching service at Myrtle Point with a sermon by E A Baker on Where Will the Kingdom Be Established. The text shifts to a proposed tax on bank accounts aimed at funding education and public works, vowing no robberies or kidnappings and claiming to deter crime and war, with details on coin limits, bank investigations, and citizen registers. The piece blends religious notices with a political vision and tax plan.
