Held on July 5-8 at Grant, Tenn (near Hartsville).
Inasmuch as Grant is the place where J. H. Grime has nagged the Christian people so much, we deem it prudent to give a few of the most interesting things connected with this discussion.
As stated in the Gospel Advocate of July 7 by James A. Allen, quoting a letter from bro. Hines, dated June 14, the Baptist of Grant met in conference with J.H. Grime as moderator, "and passed a resolution in which they state that they 'assume no responsibility' for the Wheeler-Hines debate." And after all of Grimes' boasts and challenges and nags at Christian people whom he delights in calling "Cambellites." he deliberately repeatedly Wheeler in an open oral discussion. While Grimes attended the debate and requested the speakers to leave him alone, yet he had said and written so much that it was necessary for Hines to expose his misrepresentations and false theories as set forth in his little booklet introduced by Wheeler.
Large numbers of people attended - many preachers on both sides. The treatment and deportment of the Baptists toward Wheeler was indeed noticeable; and after their stubborn and deliberate way, the Christian people took up a collection to defray Wheeler's expenses. Wheeler was very nice in the debate but labored under great embarrassment. Bro. Hines ably defended the truth. We feel that good will result.
