MORTON SISTERS ARE BACK
FROM TRIP TO HOLY LAND
(Continued from page One)
is now Easter morn over there for
there is nine hours difference in the
time between here and there Oh
Easter means more to us than ever
before and Christ is more real to us
and the Bible as His sure word is
better understood
We saw the very stone at either
end of the tomb where sat the angels
who - said “He is not here for He is
risen” Just above the sepulcher is
the gray hill Calvary where he hung
on the cross making the blessed way
of salvation for you and me and all
who will accept the Christ The hill
is so stony and desolate A small
chapel marks the place where the
cross was and in the solid rock bluff
beneath the hill is the place of the
Skull very plain in the rock
We visited the Garden of Gethsem-
ane a lovely spot and walked up on
the Mount of Olives where they stood
with Jesus as he ascended into Heav-
en Were on the Mount of Zion and
to the house of that notable “upper
room” prayer meeting The Tower of
David is still standing We saw the
birthplace of John the Baptist and
the caves where David hid away from
King Saul We traveled the very road
where Joseph took Mary and the
young child Jesus and fled into
Egypt to get away from King Herod
We walked from one end of the
Valley of Jehosophat to the other
In this valley is the Pool of Siloam
a much loved spot and the native
children still plunge into its waters
for healing
The Jordan river has a nice new
bridge now (the Allenby bridge) also
a nice big hotel in Jerusalem is
named Allenby
They told us that recently our Mr
Ford (Henry) has been over there
talking of buying the Dead Sea in
which a very valuable fertilizer has
been discovered
To the south of the city is Bethle-
hem about eight miles away and
Bethany where lived Mary Martha
and Lazarus
In the country' around we saw the
shepherds with great flocks of sheep
and goats I will tell you truly I
didn’t care much about the goat
cheese
The ancient city has very narrow
streets some places not more than a
yard wide almost the appearance of
tunnels and the heavily laden donk-
eys and camels swing their bulging
loads back and forth against the walls
You need to dodge or crouch against
the wall or you will get your nose
bumped
On the road from Damascus there
is a constant stream of loaded camels
donkeys and footmen coming and go-
ing women and girls carrying trays
and baskets of fruit on their heads
The old time Arabs still wear coats
made of goat skins and the men wear
dresses or more of a robe like the
robes of Christ’s time and the ladies
keep their faces veiled and are very
modest and sweet natured
Of course the Jews are very mod-
ern in all their ways and they are
building some very fine towns and
are improving the country in a won-
derful way And the Jews are re-'
turning to that country from every
nation under the sun coming at the
rate of a thousand a month But the
Jews are not in' control of Palestine
yet but the time will soon be when
they shall for the Bible says -they
must It is now controlled by the
British you know
We found that the missionary work
went very slow there to what it does
in America Our work was mostly to
the Jews They were hungry-hearted
and responsive to the Gospel although
we preached to the" Arabs too They
are more steeped in the Moslem re-
Igion There is only one American
church in all of Jerusalem but many
missions We do thank the Lord for
permitting us to go He has taught
us many wonderful lessons and it
seems that the Bible is a new book
to us
Crossing the Mediterranean our
boat being a cruise boat stopped at
many of the other countries giving us
a little glimpse of many nations Go-
ing over the ports of call were Africa
Algeria Italy Greece Turkey Sicily
Syria and Palestine and coming home
we sailed from Alexandria Egypt
stopping only in Italy and France '
The sea voyage was delightful The
sea was like glass except for a few
hours at a time when it had a heavy
swell that rocked us to sleep Were
scarcely seasick a day for many peo-
ple were praying for us and for our
safe voyage and He did answer for

You will rejoice with us over the
meeting last night The yard was full
' asking us to come outside and preach
The church and steps was full and the
basement packed listening for every
word of the old-time religion and the
dear Lord saved and healed the sick
So glad to hear of your new radio
Do you hear Mrs McPherson? She
broadcasts every day
Thank you Sister' Julia forthe
dollar bill you enclosed in your letter
to us in Jerusalem May the Lord
bless you all We appreciate your
prayers
I am sending you a picture of
Christ’s tomb Notice the big white
slab of stone that used to cover the
door It is Bess and I nearest the
door The others are Jerusalem folk
The other picture is Damascus Gate
the gate through which Christ bore
His cross to Calvary’s Hill You can
see the blind beggar sitting by the
gate a very common sight This is
inside the gate '
Hoping to hear from you again
very sincerely The Morton Sisters
