Testimony from General Wickberg

From Army Barmy blog:

General Wickberg gives this short testimony:
"We were 500 Cadets in my Session. Our Training Principal was Commissioner Charles Jeffries. But we did not see much of him except in big meetings and lectures. He had opened our work in China, and he loved China. He often spoke about that great country. But it impressed us more to learn that he had been the leader of the "Skeleton Army" that fought William Booth and his Salvation Army on the streets of Whitechapel until he was converted and became a Christian himself. He was a 'he-man', a quick-witted Londoner, a man of few words, always to the point, who could preach about hell-fire and the tail of the devil, so that we seemed to smell sulpher and brimstone!"
----
Notable on many fronts. First, the leader of the Skels gets saved. And he becomes a pioneer to a missionary land. The Session had 500. He preached hell-fire effectively. Praise the Lord.
