The fol owing pertinent remark was made by one of the pastors last Sabbath in a forceful discourse: "The three pastors cannot do the work necessary here, it will take every man, won an and child who is a Christian to keep the work up to what it ought to be." A wee bird naa told your correspond ent that wedding bells will ring in Seneca before another moon.
