I have just returned from the great debate at Memphis, Tennessee between G. C. Brewer, Christian, and Ben B. Lindsey, infidel. Judge Lindsey is a man of national fame on account of his sensational experience in the Juvenile Court of Denver and also on account of his infidel ideas on "companionate" marriage.

Bro. Brewer made the ablest defense for Bible marriage and the Bible order of things ever made in Memphis. I do not think any man in the U.S. could have surpassed Brewer's defense. Along the line of argument, Judge Lindsey was not in the debate, and no one realized the defeat as forcibly as did Lindsey himself. When Brewer challenged him for a ten-night's debate, offering to furnish the auditorium himself, Lindsey did not have time, but took to tall timber.

Judge Lindsey had challenged all the clergy of Memphis to meet him, but the sectarian preachers hid out. Brewer is made of "sterner stuff". We give God the glory for brethren who are loyal to the truth and have the courage to stand for it.
