"At another time when she [Ellen G. White] rose to speak, the front seats were vacant, as they are so often now. She looked down at those vacant seats and said, 'Brethren, if you do not occupy these front seats, the evil angels will. Do you want the evil angels to come between you and me and take away the message that is for you?' The front seats were filled at once." (Mrs. Alma E. McKibbin, "My Memories of Sister White," Document File 976)
