Exodus of Jews to the Moly Land Promoted by Preacher

Rev. A. C. Gabelin of New York preached at Grice Reformed Church urging that Jewish return to Jerusalem fulfills prophecies of restoration. He spoke on Zion and Israel, claimed a near end to the present dispensation, and cited Romans II to argue Israel’s eventual salvation as Jews relocate to Palestine with 610 in Jerusalem and 130000 in Palestine. The crowd included many listeners and many left angrily when he linked rejection to not accepting Jesus.

Gibbons Faces Contest Over Lackawanna Supervisor Election

Fraud and contest claims cloud Gaul election case

The petition outlines fraud allegations with Gibbons replying by attorney P W Stokes. The answer contradicts the petition and asserts Gaul received fewer votes than shown, alleging fraud benefited Gaul while a contest could lower Gaul’s tally and raise the respondent’s. Also noted are a deputy sheriff’s return and a doctor’s voluntary appearance and unrelated medical testimonials and local ads.
