News and Courier. * * 4 CROSS MILL NEWS ? 1 * ?**.-???? t!.H * , i ? * ? * It*** ?*-*?.**->, Cross Hill, Nov. 24. The saddest news we have received for some time was that Of the deatli of Mrs. Lou Helle llendrlcks near Mt. Pleasant last week. The husband and parents have our deepest sympathy in their sore bereavement. The funeral rites, which were most pathetic, were con ducted by Rev. J. A. Martin of this place in the presence of a very large concourse of relatives and friends. The Union meeting of this Ith divi sion of Laurons association will con vene bore at the Baptist church next Saturday and Sunday. The people of Cross Hill hope for a full delegation and good meeting. Itov. Rills A. Fuller, a young Bap tist minister of Mountville, filled the appointment of Rev. J. T. Miller at the Methodist church Sunday morn ing. His text was "H the Son there fore shall make you free, ye shall be free Indeed." .lohn 8:36. From this text the speaker deduced the theme, "False liberty through man's efforts," Which subject he handled with force and effect. Most of the -activities of life, said 'he preacher, are efforts of men to obtain freedom of soaie kind, political, business, social, etc., but true freedom comes only from Christ, [idleness was pictured with evident clearness as one unmistakable source of spiritual bondage and consequently a great hindrance to spiritual free dom. Mr Alford Colemon had the misfor tune a week ago, to lose by death his only horse. We arc sorry. Indeed, to learn that Miss Minnie Winn of Waterloo was compelled to give up her college work at O. F. C. and return home on ac COtinl of sever sickness. It is our sincere wish and hope that her health will soon be restored and her work resumed.
