AN APPRECIATION.
The Covenanters of Clarinda have
had a treat in the presence of Dr.
McKnight at the Clarinda Chautauqua,
where he has had charge of
the Bible Hour.
The crowds were the largest that
the Chautauqua has ever had at the
morning hour, averaging from four
to five hundred. For the nine days
of the Chautauqua, from 9.45 to 10.45
a. m., he held the close attention of
Bible students and ministers as he
opened to us the scriptures. About
700 were present for the last lecture.
We have never had an abler Bible
man. The lectures were up to the
minute on every subject discussed
and were so clearly and so forcefully
presented that the most abstruse
subjects were made plain to all. Dr.
McKnight has the rare gift of humor
which relieves the strain of intense
application.
On Sabbath night he held an audience
of 3,000 for more than an hour
on the problem of Jonah.
The Clarinda Covenanters appreciate
the fact that he came out in
the heat of Sabbath morning and
preached for us, although he was
scheduled at the Assembly for 3 p.
m. and 8 p. m., and although the pulpits
of the largest churches were
open to him.
We are strengthened in the old
faith and proud of a man who can
do what he does.
We hope for his return next year.
