It appears that the churches, were aKotted according to their past record for contributing to the benevolent causes and the local church has an enviable record in this respect; hence the apportionment amounted to above $100 per member, a much larger amount per capita than was required, of a number ofc ih'vttches in this soetion. The fact that in the congregation arc only a few men of means makes the showing more deserving as showing a very decided spirit of liberality. Only a few years ago the church divided the time* of a pastor .with the Flint Hill church but now supports a pastor for his full time and at a salary above the amount paid b> both churches formerly. Much money has also been expended in improving the church edifice Which is now most conveniently arranged especially with regard to the needs of the Sunday school.
