Those Who Have Fallen Asleep

From sister Inys Whiteside, daughter of the late bro. R. L. Whiteside, comes the following:

"Mama died February 28th, just one month short of ninety one years. She had lived a long and full life. She was ready and willing to go. A consecrated Christian, an ever loving faithful wife, a devoted mother, a servant of the people is the full summary of her life."

For those who might like to write sister Inys Whiteside, her address is: 1103 Bernard Street, Denton, Texas.

News Brief

Billy W. Moore, Capps Road, Harrison, Ark.: "I came to Harrison, Arkansas more than five years ago after trouble over the present issues had divided the church, and preached to 32 people that first Sunday morning, and 14 of them later left to join forces with the Liberals. The liberals outnumbered us at that time about 450 to 32, that's 14 to 1. Presently our Sunday morning attendance will average 110. Nearly two years ago our building burned, but we moved to a new residential area, built a new building that will seat 250, with ample classrooms, and have it paid for. During my stay in Harrison the Park Hill church, Ft. Smith, Ark., has assisted in my support, sending unto my necessities each month. Without their help I could not have stayed in Harrison. Now after more than five years I am leaving the work in Harrison to begin work with the church in Butler, Mo., July 1st. The future for the sound church in Harrison looks bright. In this and surrounding counties the sound churches have increased in number and strength in recent years. It has been a joy to live and work in Harrison, and to see a sound church where the liberals are strong. The liberals now outnumber us about 500 to 110, but that's only 5 to I. The sound church is growing, slowly, one by one, but we are growing. May God bless and strengthen everyone who is fighting for the truth, that we be not weary in well-doing."
