It was felt that after the action of the Free Kirk the Establisheds 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 dreamt of competing with them.
What was regarded as a judgment on the Free Kirk for its boastfulness of spirit on the preceding Sunday happened during the forenoon.
