As yet no word has come from John R. Clark about the debate he proposed with me in Jackson, Tenn. Where is Mr. Clark? Will some Baptist please tell us? Mr. Penick continues to be as silent as the grave.
A. U. Nunnery has written me that he is unwilling to meet me in the North Jackson Baptist Church or any other Baptist Church. There is a reason. The Baptist cause does not prosper when the searchlight of God's truth is turned on. I have met Mr. Nunnery 4 times, and brethren predicted at the close of our last, several years ago, that we would never debate again.
I have recently learned that Nunnery had the North Jackson Baptist Church to endorse him to meet there in the debate during his meeting there in the spring, and proposed publicly to have a debate. Later one of his members sent me word to submit propositions, which I did. And which he rejected; but he sent me some instead, signed by himself, which I signed and returned. Now he writes men that he never challenged for a debate, and that unless our brethren will furnish the house and give him the opening and closing speeches, he will not debate. Baptist preachers are good at putting up a bold front and then retreating from the battlefield when they find an opponent.
