The largest attendance that ever greeted a speak- er in the “Little Church Around the Corner,’ was present and all declared it the most Inspiring talk that they have ever heard. Mr. Crawford said twenty years ago that he was first converted and became a follower of Christ. At this time Francis Murphy and D. $loody were conducting a series of evangelistic mectings in Bos- ton and while at one of these he be- came a convert. At that time 20,- 000 people united with the church and it was the greatest blessing that Boston has ever known up to the present stay of Sunday, Mr. Crawford said. During his present visit at the Hub City Sunday has converted 50,000 people and there are as many more waiting to be converted, said Mr. Crawford. In_fact the mecetings have grown to such proportions that they | have touched Bostoh from center to circumference. “‘God never a failure,” said Mr. as a proof of this he pointed out that the stars, sun and moon were God's work and they never failed but licved to Be Mentally Unbalanced i Were always working from day day. “Billy” Sunday would ng more | fail in his Boston campaign tfian the suh and moon for God had started him in his work, he claimed.
