THAYER, KANSAS.

By N. W. Vincent

A Dunkard preacher, Eld. Clay, had threatened to tear the arguments in favor of the seventh day “all to pieces.” The day, Aug. 19, had come. The log school-house could not hold the audience. The speaker maintained that the expression “Lord’s day” is found in 2 Cor. and Rev. 3, and refers to Sunday; that the Sabbath, with the ten commandments, was given, along with the passover, to commemorate the deliverance of the Israelites from Egypt!
The speaker was here taken with a chill, and requested any minister present to speak to the people. An aged Methodist preacher declining, upon request I endeavored for an hour to declare the plain word of God in respect to “his holy day.” A general interest seems to be springing up to hear the whole truth.
