e haven't anything of interest to write
you. Our crops will all soon be gather
ed and the grain all sowed and then we
will be ready to go rabbit hunting. But
then we have heard something about
licenses, permits, etc., so I guess we
will not hunt much as we haven't got
either.
Ed Bowen, a law student at Furman
Uuiversity, preached a very forcible
sermon at Mt. Carmel the first Sunday
morning. He only decided to enter the
ministry the Sunday before. We pre
