In conclusion a collection and pledges were made for the movement. Dr. Stewart was accompanied here by Chas. F. Jackman, of Huntington. Mr. Jackman is the man who spoke here at the progressive banquet held at the armory last year. He is interested in the cause of temperance and will probably speak in the interest of the Flying Squadron. He is a member of the Methodist church at Huntington and reports that that that church suffered $15,000 damage by fire one day last week. A new pipe organ was being installed and the fire broke out in the rear of the organ.
