Our town has been highly fa
vorod with religious services dur
ing tho past wooks. Tho Pastor of
tho Baptist ohuroh conducted a
mooting of a week's duration and
much good was dono.
In tho ensuing wook the pastor
of tho Presbyterian church, as
sisted by Rov. J. Hi Thornwoll,
D. D., conducted it mooting in
that ohuroh for noitrly a week,
whieh rosultod in great edification I
and building up of the ohuroh.
In tho onsuing week the Fastor
of the Methodist ohuroh, assisted
by Rev. R. A. Child and O. T.
Harman conducted a meeting of
soveral days, which was somewhat
hindered .by bad woather, but
good was done and fruit will be
gathered in tho days to come.
During the onsuing two weeks
Rov. N. J. Holmes, assisted by
Rov. Harloy, of Clinton and an
able corps of laymon and laywo

resulted in much good to all who
attended tho services. Those
sories of meotings have brought
about a groat revolution in our
town and community and much
good will bo borne to tho honor
and glory of the groat head of tho
church.
The hoalth of our community is
now good, only a fow oases of ill
