"Where People Trade
i To Sove"
We who live in the comfortable day* of the Twentieth Century may do well to cherish
and honor the memory of the vigorous servant* of another day without whom we could not
enjoy the hlaaaingi of our time. Among thoae noblemen of another day we must count the
Circuit Ridor of the churcbaa.
They were “Prophet* of tffc Long Trail,* on horseback and by boat and by buggy, making
their way along the bridle paths and the fresh trail* of the frontier settlements, or down the
streams along whose shores men had built their homes and their hamlets. Of one of them we
have read that he journeyed some 270,000 miles through a long itinerant ministry.
T hese men were first and last God’s men, committed to the work which they believed to
be the will of God for them to do. They were “very sure of God” and counted themselves His
messengers to the careless and the sinful and the needy. They carried Good News of divine
grace and hop* for lost man and woman, and they spoke it whatever they could get a hearing;
in private homes, in empty buildings of every sort, in the open fields, in the busy streets of the
city. They asked only for people who would listen.
They were also lovers of their fellows, concerned for the present .and for the eternal
welfare of men. Many of them were well-educated men who brought into the distance places
the news of the world and a camful interpretation of its meaning. They were all imbued with
such love for human souls that (hoy counted no sacrifice too groat, if they might kindle in a
man’s heart a love for the Father God. They believed that inner riches were more to be desired
than much fine gold. They carried books and Bibles and tracts for the hungry minds, they
brought comfort and cheer to looely spirits, but mainly they brought the Touch of God for
the healing of souls. •
Thank God then for these good servants of another day; may their memory stir each of
us to self-forgetful service of men and of God.
