Eld. Himes Answers Reports Circulating Against Him
By Editor
Notice is given in this number of the October issue of Himes' Journal, in which he makes answer to the reports that have for some time past been in circulation against him. We have purposely refrained from saying anything in regard to these reports, till both sides should be heard. Whatever may be the character of Eld. Himes, in point of moral and Christian rectitude, as it shall appear in the last great Judgment, we have been confident that the men who were most active in this movement against him, were base enough to descend to almost anything to carry their points. We wish him all success in his efforts to obtain justice, knowing that if he ever gets it from the parties referred to, it will be not as a free offering on Christian principle, but as a victory wrenched from them, after a desperate struggle.
