Loyal Disciples.
The Disciples, “Campbellites,” of
Ohio, had been holding a tent meeting at
Bedford, in Cuyahoga County.
On the morning of the eighth of September, just before commencing religious exercises,
Dr. Robinson arose and offered the following resolution:
“
Resolved, That in the present condition of our country it becomes us as a people professing Christianity, to remember our Government before God in our prayers, to give of our substance in support of the same most freely, and our lives in every emergency, when called upon by the ‘powers that be,’ which powers are ordained of God; remembering that our duty to our God and to ourselves requires this at our hands.”
