Ayers's Last Meeting in Lazette
Bro. R. H. Brock gives the following additional particulars of Bro. Ayers's meeting in Lazette, Kan.:— Bro. Ayers's last meeting was one long to be remembered. He spoke from Rev. 21:7. His remarks were very impressive, and almost the entire audience was in tears. Bro. A. thought it might be the last time he should ever be permitted to meet with us until we meet in the city of the great King. The closing prayer was particularly affecting. Sinners' hearts were melted and impressed with duty. As we sung the hymn, “We speak of the realms of the blessed,” Bro. Ayers passed through the congregation, taking each by the hand and exhorting all to be faithful. Now, my dear brethren and sisters in the Lord, and especially those of you in the Kansas Conference, let us pray to God in behalf of our dear brother, the president of our Conference, that he may be restored to health again. The exceedingly warm weather has been very unfavorable for his afflicted limb, and has increased the swelling very much. May the Lord bless our dear brother.
