<TITLE>03. Par 20-26</TITLE>L-20 And then I went into the front room and set down for a little while, and it was about three-thirty or four o'clock in the morning. I got real sleepy. I went back and laid down, and I dreamed a dream, and it was the most odd dream. And most all of you know one of the managers, Jack Moore, Brother Jack Moore. I've knowed him for years. I thought that I was out with a date with his daughter, a girl about seventeen years old, and was taking her by the hand, leading her up the hill, little Jackie. Well, I've knowed her since she was just a nursing baby. And I was leading her up the hill, and I went three city blocks up the hill, leading this girl. And we come under a big tree, and she set down. And like a lot of the little teenage girls today wear them skirts that, you know, kind of bulged out, and she had on one of those kind of a skirts. And she took this little skirt and kind of spread it out and sit down. And as young folks usually looking at each other, she folded her hands like this and begin to look up towards the sky. Well, Jackie is a very fine little girl, but she has a great big mouth and great big eyes, and kind of sandy hair, not too attractive, but a real little lady. And I could see her big eyes as she looked towards the skies, and how the reflection of the skies was in her eyes.

L-21 Well, I went about five feet from her, and kind of laid down sideways like this, and got a straw, and put it in my mouth, and begin to chew on this straw. And I begin to think, "What am I doing up here? Why, me an old man, and with this young girl. Why," I said, "I'm married and have a bunch of children. I don't have any business up here with this young girl."
And I started to raise up. And, when I did, a Voice came from the tree and said, "This is for a sign and for a cause."
And I woke up, and I almost screamed, a--a nightmare. I thought, "Oh, wonder if that means that I'm going to backslide or something happen to me? Well," I thought, "If I go to trying to use my own mind, then I'll get it all mixed up; so I'll just wait on God." And I started praying. I said, "Lord, does that dream pertain to that vision just in the early part of the night, or what does it mean?

L-24 After waiting some time, maybe an hour (My wife was already up and had breakfast ready.), then the Voice came back again and said, "Go on to Kingston, and it'll be told you there what to do."
So immediately I went to Kingston. And they--they knowed Thursday afternoon that I'd be there Friday. That's all the advertisement we had. I'm not very good at making a...?... or estimating crowds, because I usually exaggerate on it. But the first night, I'd say we had about twelve, oh, about twelve hundred people out, because it was just known one day. And the next day they started runners running four miles on relay up the mountains. One runner would run for four hours, and then let some other runner go on up the mountain. And the second night there was about five thousand. And the third night it was estimated around fifteen thousand, maybe twenty. And there were thousands times thousands came to the Lord.

L-26 And the vision was, the little church, the girl was a virgin, just a child, and that meant the virgincy of the church. And the three city blocks up the hill was three days I would minister. And taking the little virgin church by my ministry, from where she was, on higher in the things of God, until it shook the entire island...
And, oh, ministers and people around, crying and begging and persuading, "Just a night or two more," the city officials.
