An oral debate on the coming of the Son of Man, endless punishment, and universal salvation. Held in Milton, Ind., Oct. 26, 27, and 28, 1847

Erasmus Manford — whose memoir Twenty-five Years in the West is also in this collection — against Benjamin Franklin, the great Disciples of Christ editor and debater. Three propositions argued over successive days before an Illinois audience, ranging from the second coming to endless punishment. Two frontier publishing empires met in this contest, and both sides printed it.
