Re: Who was Harry Morse ?
The Man of the Hills by Olive Haney page 42 and 43
"They heard of the Holy Ghost outpouring at Azuza Street, in Los Angeles. Harry Morse, a young Penial minister, was sent to investigate the phenomenon. Because he endorsed this new experience he was asked to resign from Penial. He then started a small mission of his own on the corner of Grant and Main Street in downtown Stockton. The Haneys threw their lot in with him. Sophie Haney and Harry Morse both received the Holy ghost on Sophie's twenty ninth birthday. March 14, 1908. Sophie, Levi, and their three children played instruments and sang....
A new doctrine was being promoted over the Pentecostal movement and many were the debates and discussions over the "issue"...This little group also spent much time in prayer and Bible studies on these subjects. It culminated in a division with Harry Morse and a few others, Sophie and Levi amoung them, taking a stand for baptism in the Name of Jesusand the one God message.
When Harry Morse left to open a mission on 9th Street in Oakland, California,Levi took over in Stockton for a while."
