eleven o'clock
How much denominational competition had to do with this , none can say ; but the general opinion was that this muster to afternoon service was a piece of vainglory . Next Sunday all the kirks were on their mettle , and , though the snow was drifting the whole day , services were general . It was felt that after the action of the Free Kirk the Established and the U.P. 's must show what they too were capable of . So , when , the bells rang-at eleven o'clock and two , church-goers began to pour out of every close . If I remember aright , the victory lay with , the U.P. 's by two women and a boy . Of course the Auld Lichts mustered in as great force as ever . The other kirks never dreamed of competing with them .
