THURSDAY JAN. 10th 1005. Pee Dec Union. i*r _ * *? v u wouia stato ror the benefit of those that did not attend the last session of tho Pee Dee Union that the next session will convene on January 27-28-29th with the Rehoboth church, where we hope that every church belonging to the Union will be represented. Wc arc very sorry to have to re cord so small a delegation as we did at the last session, and more especially it being our first meeting in another county, (in a part of Georgetown county) where there has never been a meeting of this kind before. We have often heard it related the more the merrier, the fewer the better share, which was true on that occasion, while it took us just one week to make the trip, we never heard of a single one to regret the trip. We were among as gencrous and hospitable i>eoplo as we ever met, and the Lord did not forget his children over there at Mt. Olive church in Georgetown county, but sent his blessings upon us? blessed the church spiritually and generally oonceded to be the best session spiritually within its history. We have the following queries to bo discussed at the next sesuon-viz. 1st?What steps shall we take to make our Union moro interesting? 2nd?What shall church do with a preacher or deacon who absents ninn-elf habitually from the Union? The committees appointed at the July session were continued for a report at ihe approaching session, uiau tin' election 01 oilieers for the] ensuing year which was laid over a."- i the delegation was so small Wo again urge for a full represen tation at the approaching session, it is among a people well able and who know how to entertain brethren and they aro willing to do it. We also expect or invito corresponding messengers from sister Unions to bo with us. C. 11. Todd, Clerk. From tlic Bay. 1 am glad to say that there has not been much said of the Bay of late. Our people aro prospering in most of their undertakings. We are glad again to have no small pox in our community as reported in some sections. A number of new buildings aro going up and some almost completed. Mr. J. T. Floyd is conducting a very good school here Ij. C. Ward, one of our Buv hnv* who has been holding a position _ with Mess. L. L, Rogers & Co., at Mullins, has returned homo. Several of our young people spent Old Christmas day in North Carolina. Among them were J, V. Stevens and his brother Leland, Misses Docia and Dclphia Ward and their brother Chester, and Misses Clara and Eflio Harrelson. Somo snow was seen a few days ago but it is thawing weather at this writing. It looks now as if the farmers will 1 bo behind if they continue to plant cotton and tobacco, we hope to see them plant moro corn and potatoes and raise plenty of meat, so there will bo a chance for them to live, regardless of the price of either cotton or tobacco. O. T. Harrelson who recently moved from this section to Clarendon, N. C., spent one night last week at N. P. Stephen's. N. B. Allsbrook of San ford, was in this section a few days ago. H, Hinson was in Mullins on business one day last week. Our farmers are holding their cotton for a higher price which I hope they will got. Q. Hinson has purchased the farm formerly owned by O. T. Harrelson, situated in the upper part of the Hay. M E. P. .Tenrette, a well known mer^chant of Mullins, was in this section last week. Miss Daisy Stevens is getting on very well with her school at Cedar Creek, Ed Harrelson of the Green Sea section was a caller in this section last Sunday.

Cook took home with him some of his friends to share a nice watermelon. Surely it must have been a citron. The farmers are disheartened over the low price of cotton and tobacco. Surely our cotton buyers think we can grow the staple for nothing. The Herald is a welcome visitor in our home every Thursday. With best wishes to its readers and friends. A. C. II.
