Prosecution for Sunday Labor

By K. C. RUSSELL

THE following is a copy of a warrant that has been issued against nine Seventh-day Adventists, five women and four men, in Greenville, S. C., for the crime of “sabbath”-breaking!
“For working on the sabbath day in violation of Statute No. 500, all of which is contrary to the aforesaid statutes, in each case against the peace and dignity of the state.” Witnesses: Henry Senn, Charley Holcombe, Davis Knight, and Jacob Miller.
Friday, July 16, the warrant was served on five of the nine persons against whom it was issued,—three women and two men,—and the trial was set for Wednesday, July 21; but a postponement until August 4 is hoped to be secured, at which time the writer expects to be present.
Let all pray that through this experience the truth may be glorified and souls won to Christ. K. C. RUSSELL.
