THIRTY-TWO ACCESSIONS TO
CEDAR SWAMP CHURCH-ADVANTAGES
OF A FINE COMMUNITY.
/
Benson, October 23: ? Quite a
crowd attended services at Cedar
Grove Baptist church Sunday afterP"*~booa
to witness the formal receiving
into the church of the thirty-two
applicants for membership who were
recently immersed in Black river by
^ their pastor. Rev W E Hurt. The
^"new members were nineteen men
and thirteen women. This neighborhood
has two churches, Methodist
and Baptist, within a mile of each
- other.with services alternating, which
gives the church-going people an opportunity
to hear the Gospel preached
each Sunday. There is perfect
Kormnnv and hrntherlv love existing
toward each congregation, notwithstanding
the difference of belief
along denominational lines. Were it
not for the intervening trees in
Cedar swamp the two churches
would be in view of each other, with
K^the graded school near by and the
l^ftjostoftice located between the
PK-hurches. Having a daily mail, getting
our State papers and other mail
matter at noon each day. besides a
fine telephone connection with Kingsfct
tree and Rhem's store at B.ooming&
vale, we feel that we ar-' happily situated
for countrv folk.
& ,*yy-'.iidn't begin this article to ad6fS-?^Vise
our community, but one
thought developed another, and we
would like to add that Cedar Swamp
lands are second to none and a fine
supply of pure drinking water from
- deep wells and artesian flows contributes
to the health of our pro\
gressive little neighborhood.

Personally we feel a keen sense of a

sat by his side during two sessions of 1
the General Assembly, we came to b
know him well and he was a man one n
had to know to appreciate at his a

the handicap of lack-of educational j

led the ticket. Subsequently he was
