At 10 o'clock the Sunday school
was called into the church and
there arranged in proper position,
and Photographer W. A. Davis
being present,with his instrument
in readiness, he proceeded to
make a'negative of the Sunday
school. Then all were marched

a second negative made ol the
school and church. The cngrega'ion
again assembled in the
church, andj the object of the
meeting explained by the chairman,

The meeting was then opened
with prayer by Bro. Sapp.
