The Singing Convention, by M. S. Steger, of Delray, Texas.
Melville Scott Steger (1855-1945) served as the chairman of the East Texas Sacred Harp Convention for several years, and continuously from 1910-1942. In several issues in 1902, the pages of the Texas Christian Advocate hosted a lively debate on the pros & cons of singing conventions. Because of the local and singing convention connection of M. S. Steger, I decided to copy and present his thoughts on the matter.
