We must reasonably conclude that the story of the light appearing on the Ohio River was never reported in any newspaper.  We must also conclude that William Branham estimates of numbers were wildly exaggerated.

==Who is Edward Colvin?==
==How long would it take to baptize 500 people?==
Willliam Branham mentions that Edward Colvin was being baptized when the light came down. If anyone would be a great witness to this event, Edward would be.
 
Assuming a very short period of time per baptism, say 1 minute per person, it would have taken 500 minutes or '''over 8 hours''' to baptize 500 people.  Of course, it is almost impossible to baptize one person every 60 seconds if you are going to say even a  very simple prayer before they were baptized.
 
Was William Branham exaggerating the number of people being baptized? What else did he exaggerate?
