We reached the parsonage on Wednesday, the 23d De.e 0er, and were met by a delegation from Fountain Inn church, who gave us a bountiful dinnet, and man : other ings which are useful to anl itin erant and his family. Capt. Wim. Parks turned a fine peafowl into our lien-house, and aid these Methodists should not get ahead of hin- lie being a Baptist.

The people seei to be willing to submit as gracefully as possible to the change of preach-. ers. We have six acce9sions to date. I mean to look after my part of the flocks around here. I went last night to visit a famil) whom I married about eighteen years ago and to whom was given a sweet little girl. I baptized her about sixteen yearsI ago and received her intoI the church last night at the home of her pa rents. I was delighted t ) do this for her. \Ve have over five hundred and twenty-five members on this work. I amn going to do IIy utmost to iect the demands upon me both in the puilpit and in my pastoral work. We have three chiurches--Bar tist, Presbyterian, and lethodist. We have a graded school, whose principal is Prof. Dominick, a New berry boy, a son of my life long friends John Doininick and Mrs. Nannie Doninick. I love him for his parents' sake as wvell as for his own. IHe has an enrolhnent of near ly 'oo pupils anmi has kour assistants. The peop)le of th is sectilon ale well. to-do.
