The revival continues to gather force in North Wales. A meeting held at Mold was remarkable for its power and effect. The leader was Rev. Seth Joshua (who was used of God in leading Evan Roberts into a glorious experience). Mr. Joshua called upon all the men present to sing a verse of “I surrender,” and urged them to let the surrender include football, billiards, drink, and everything that kept them from Jesus Christ. Then he called upon the women to sing a verse, and asked them to let the surrender include attendance at dances, chit-chat, gossip, and back-biting, and expensive forms of dress and living, and whatever hindered their progress as Christians.

At the close of the meeting a large number of converts came forward. Prayer-meetings are being held in all Nonconformist places of worship at Mold. It has now been ascertained that the number of conversions, as a direct result of the revival movement in the Nantlle Vale district alone, reaches the total of 480.

Rev. T.C. Roberts, Llanfairfechan, says:

The revival was first felt in Llanfairfechan during the last week in November. The following week all the chapels had special prayer-meetings, which were well attended, and were the focus of arousing the whole place. Hardly a night passed in many of the chapels without some converts. The following week we had united prayer-meetings and special services. The week after all the chapels had their own meetings.

Every Saturday evening from the commencement we have had united prayer-meeting, either in one of the largest chapels or in the Public Hall, and, wherever it is held the place is always packed. Every Saturday evening, previous to the meeting, there is always a procession through the whole place. The women also are having a united prayer-meeting twice a week, which is well attended, and a great means of blessing. The workmen also are having prayer-meetings in the Penmaur Quarries at the dinner hour. Since the revival came there is a vast improvement in the moral tone and behavior of the whole place.
