Levi Ely, G.H. Schleh, W.E. Fowler. 160 p.; 5 pl.; 22.5 cm. Flack's `Christian Union history in brief', p.156-60, red penc. `While Christian Union was chrystalizing [sic] in Illinois, it was also chrystalizing in Ohio, Indiana, and Iowa.

Abbott, H. Ellis and others. Thus onward went the blessed union organizations--springing into existence as if by magic and without any great material endeavor. The people often met without the aid of the clergy and formed themselves into local churches and then call for the assistance of such ministers as they could induce to make them a visit.

Peace was wanted, the privilege of hearing the cross preached was longed for and sought. The light gleamed along the shore once more; and out of the smoke of battle came the yearning of souls longing for the life and power of vital religion.' (p. 64 f.) G x-l mustard cloth, spine ends rubbed and stained. Sewing slack. …
