Renshaw, have been holding revival meetings in this-church but the influence so spread that many of the ministers of the Bismarck district dutside of Bismarck, vith large delegations of their people, have attended and the | different protestant churches of the city ‘virtually turned it into a union meeting. ‘As a spiritual leader, teacher and preacher, Dr, Bennard stands in the foremost ranks und as a singer Rev. Renshaw has but few equals and as a bible reader and gencral worker he-ranks very high. Both of the men made many friends in Bismarckamong the Reo- ple=in general. Dr, Bennard left at noon. for his home at-Hermosa Beach, California, and Rev: Renshaw started to his home in Detroit, Michigan, where he will soon begin a five weeks’ Evan- gelistic campaign’in his home city. These men have been loyally as- sisted by the pastor and members of the McCabe church to the utmost of cir’ ability and the choir and pianist have been unceasing in their efforts.
