Seventh Day Adventist stirred up. On yesterday a dozen Adventist heard my discourse on the Sabbath, and before I had concluded the discourse the whole dozen -- men and women -- began to violently assail me. The elders of the Church of Christ publicly challenged the Adventists, naming me as their representative, and forced them to publicly promise that they would secure their representative at once. Today the town talk is with reference to this matter, and the interest is sure to so stir the religious waters here as to bring many under the power of the truth of God. The brethren Poor - Fuqua worked to pay expenses.
Illness prevented Kittering from meeting Fuqua. Debate announced in paper and created great excitement. A reporter who called himself "Mr. Sataricus" helped to create interest by writing daily why debates were wrong. Bro. Fuqua replied in a two column article -- We have secured the largest auditorium in Greeley, Colorado, paying $75 for ten nights. The Adventists paid half the bill. Interest ran sky high as this was the first debate in Colorado.
Two days after debate Fuqua met E. F. Shope, Latter Day Saints, in a four-day debate in Denver. It was repeated at Boulder. I am in the battlefront here now, and I can rejoice in privilege of defending the truth before indifferent people. These debates stirs up people and causes them to think.
March 17, 1910 - Fell from bicycle and crushed rib a day before debate began. Suffered much but debated anyway.
