ussed as it never has "been before. . ~
er the discussion of the lesson the
day School scholar^?had a rally
the benefit of the S. {^Convention,
h class Jiad jx. captain, and Rev.
E. Robinson gave a present to
captain that raised the largest
of money. Miss Ophelia William*
tain of class No. 1 was fortunate
2ceiving the token from the pastor,
unday at 8 p. m. was regarder by
(vho attended as a very interesting - v A
beneficial night. Rev. Robinson's J
was based on Psalm 61:2: "From
end of the earth will I cry unto
, when my heart is overwhelmed:
, me to the rock that is higher '
i I." This was indeed a wonderservice.
We had a larl?6 number
