THE UNION 'MEETING AT PETER'S CREEK This meting was held on last Sat urday and Sunday and was well at tended on both days. Some excellent talks were made and much good was done. The spe)ech made by Dr. W. M. Ponder on revival, Civic andi Re4 ligious Imp1rovellent was one i tihe best. The dilers served en both days were bountiful and appetizing, h ing the unstinted hospitality ot tiS good people. - Peter's Creek is one of the ,ldest churches in Pickens county. It is located in one of the most I mautiful spots in the north eastern part of tiis county. A magnificent forest of giant oaks are south and west of it. On these days the soft rays of the October sun shone against the brigh redI -yellow and green leaves anld made a lovely picture. To thet north side of 'the church sleep many who have gone on before. About the old est grave is one Nations who servCd in the Revolutionary war, and there are many others. Some familia names are the Loopers, Singletons Hunts, Hughes, Williams, Fosters and Alexanders, whose tombstone stand as mighty sentinels reminding us of good and sturdy people who have gone on before. We believe that inl the near future this part of our county will have good roads an then there will be no reason Why she shall not again blossom as the rose .WORD "MAVERICK" GIEN TO ENGLISH I.ANGUAGE BY CENTRAL MAN F.
