M. L. Lawrence vs W. C. Austin (Freewill Baptist)
January 24, 1918
Near Drumright, Oklahoma
(By T. A. Phillips)
A four day debate held at Ravendale Church near Drumright, Okla. between bro. M. L. Lawrence and W. C. Austin, Freewill Baptist. General church question.
Austin contended that the church began in the garden of Eden and that Abel was the first member. Austin is a good debater, and, considering the weakness of his position, he did well. Bro. Lancaster is a young man, but did a good work in the debate and the cause was upheld. Both speakers showed kind and Christian spirit. Good feelings prevailed.
